If you own more than 10% of the units in the building, that would make the building "non-warrantable", meaning buyers would need to go through portfolio-lenders and likely pay higher interest rates. 

Contact your HOA to make sure that no more than 49% of the units are rentals as this will make the refinance more difficult as it would become a non-warrantable condo.I hope this helps and have a great day.

Make sure to be aggressive in keeping costs low, and relying on expert advice where its warranted and not just taking something for granted.  

Paraphrasing, Maverick stated that the information provided on subject properties was not warranted and was provided as-is by the “Sellers”.

I can't decide if there is a big enough student population to warrant the investment.

But here could always be circumstances that warrant a shorter (or longer) holding period.

$500-600 is low for Columbus, so you are likely looking in areas that warrant that kind of rent, like a C or D area.

But there can always be circumstances that may warrant a shorter hold time.  

Hi all,Can anyone provide some advice on obtaining a mortgage for a non warrantable condo that I would use as a primary residence? 

If you need help or references for insurance pricing message me or send a colleague request, and I would be happy to give you some good fundamentals to quickly assess if an opportunity warrants a closer look.
