Down payment & LTV

Leverage, down payment, cash-out and seasoning requirements require current lender confirmation.

Appraisal & rent schedule

Lenders may request an appraisal, rent schedule and leases. Short-term or furnished income treatment requires program-specific confirmation.

Reserves

Reserve requirements vary by lender, borrower, property and program. Budget for vacancy, repairs and capital expenditures separately from PITIA.

Entity ownership

Entity eligibility, guarantees, credit reporting and state requirements depend on the lender and loan structure. Obtain independent legal and tax advice.
