Paul DeSilva Banks are only offering commercial loans on my 2 family refinance
24 February 2018 | 16 replies
@Paul DeSilva:@John Leavelle and @Anthony Gayden (above) are both correct.Unless you have more than 10 residential mortgages, or the properties are above the jumbo mortgage limits or you're trying to finance the the properties with the LLC intact, then they should qualify for conventional residential FNMA loans.For the LLC situation: my strategy is to close the loan under my personal name (no LLC), then after a few months of "seasoning" to establish on-time payment, notify the lender that I plan to drop the property into an LLC strictly for asset protection purposes.Many seasoned pros will tell you that you don't even have to notify the lender that you plan to do so, but will warn that doing so runs the ever-so-slight risk that they may actually call the entire loan due immediately.
