Multi Unit Residential Mortgages

Multi Unit Residential Mortgages – A Guide to Owning Rental Properties

When it comes to a multi unit residential mortgage, it’s a lot easier to get what you need if you work with a qualified professional. Investing in multi residential real estate can be a very wise financial move. But, you must play your cards right. Any residential building with more than 4 units to rent out will require commercial mortgage financing.

Applying for commercial mortgages can be time consuming and more expensive than applying for a conventional residential mortgage. With the help of a mortgage broker who understands the process, you can save more time and more money than you likely would otherwise.

Our mortgage brokers are well-versed in the commercial mortgage lending process. The Mortgage Brokers Network have been helping investors arrange multi unit residential mortgages for decades. Our experience and access to a broad spectrum of flexible lenders will ease the process. Working with an experienced broker can make your path to becoming a multi residential property owner a reality.

What You Should Know About the Commercial Lending Process

The commercial lending process can take more time to sort out and it often requires that you meet strict credit and income requirements. Working with an alternative lender can help because they offer competitive rates and more flexibility than the bank. Commercial financing may also require a higher down payment. 

Commercial lenders may ask for additional information not required when applying for a conventional residential mortgage. Depending on your plans, and how you intend to structure ownership of your new property, you may be asked for extra documentation. 

For example, if you intend to purchase the property in a corporate name, you may be asked for your articles of incorporation. If you purchase a multi-residential building that also has some commercial space to rent on the ground floor you may be asked for a business plan or in the case of a refinancing application, financial statements or corporate tax returns.

Again, working with an experienced broker can save you a lot of time, anguish and money in the long run.  Knowing how to navigate the complexities of commercial financing is key to getting an approval. 

Refinancing an Existing Multi Unit Residential Mortgage

If you already own a multi residential property we can help you find the best possible refinancing rate. Things have likely changed since you obtained your current mortgage. You may stand to benefit from the existing low interest environment.

If your credit is in good standing and you simply want to shop for a new mortgage to cut down on your monthly borrowing costs, we can help with that too. We can also help with your equity borrowing needs. For example, if you need to refinance to make important repairs to your multi family property, we can find a lender to help you obtain the funding you need to keep your property up to standard.

A Broker Provides the Best Help with Multi Unit Residential Mortgages

Essentially, the best way to ensure that you are approved for a multi residential mortgage is to work with an experienced mortgage broker. Working with someone who understands commercial financing and who has a good understanding of the commercial mortgage lending process is invaluable. Not only can a mortgage broker simplify the process and make it more cost effective – a mortgage broker can make it happen faster.

At Mortgage Brokers Network we can work with traditional bank lenders and non-traditional lenders to finance your loan. Our non-traditional lenders will take a common sense approach to reviewing your application. If you need an alternative lending solution, we can be your best ally in your quest for the right lender to work with.
