01The Dossier

Condo financing is not the same as a single-family home loan.

Miami's market includes high-rise buildings, luxury units, investor-owned properties, foreign buyers, and complex association requirements. A strong loan strategy starts with understanding both the borrower and the building.

I
Building review

HOA reserves, insurance, and litigation can affect program fit.

II
Buyer profile

Income, residency, credit, and assets influence available options.

III
Loan type

Conventional, jumbo, DSCR, non-QM, and foreign programs differ materially.

IV
Timing

A pre-offer financing review can reduce contract surprises.

Knowing how a building underwrites before we tour saves my clients weeks. I send buyers here before we write — period.
