What did your finances look like?

Posted

I’m interested in multi family in the $1-1.5m range. One lender said I don’t have the personal income to support this (150-160k). I haven’t dug in to this yet or called other lenders, but I’m curious what other people’s income was when they were first approved for loans over $1M. I know partners are an option, but not one I want to use right now.

You will need the down payment, net worth equal to the loan amount and cash reserves for 12-18 months worth of payments right now. Best bet is to raise the capital and bring in a financial qualifier aka KP
