Apartment and Multifamily Construction Loans
Multifamily & Apartment Construction and Development Financing
Construction financing terms are more competitive than ever. For apartment construction loans, HUD is – as always – offering the most competitive fixed-rate, fully amortized, high-leverage, non-recourse financing. However, those HUD 221(d)(4) projects involve a great amount of bureaucratic paperwork as well as a lengthy timetable (typically seven to 10 months to close).
On the positive side, bank construction loans are readily available for the majority of commercial property construction, such as mixed use, office, retail, industrial, etc. Additionally, they permit you to take your finished/stabilized product and recapitalize as soon as the job is concluded with a cash-out refinance or sale, with minimal or zero prepayment penalty.
With regard to multifamily properties, Fannie, Freddie, and CMBS provide unlimited cash out– as much as 80% LTV contingent upon the specific circumstance. HUD loans, although delivering the maximum leverage, do not typically permit recapitalization (there is a lockout period accompanied by a significant prepayment penalty). With respect to commercial properties, life companies and banks provide comfortable permanent financing solutions with some degree of recapitalization or earnouts.
