Small Balance Multifamily Loans
Small Balance Multifamily Loans are popular financing options for apartments with less than 100 units. Assets with over 100 units may be permitted with approval.
The defining feature of small balance multifamily loans is their loan amount, which typically falls below the threshold of traditional commercial real estate financing. This makes them particularly attractive to individual investors, small business owners, or those looking to enter the real estate market without the financial burden of larger loans.
The maximum loan amounts are $6 million for Fannie Mae’s Small Balance program, and $7.5 million for Freddie Mac.
