Commercial Real Estate

Multi-family loans for the buildings the Hudson Valley lives in.

From a six-unit in Midtown Kingston to a garden complex in the Town of Newburgh, we finance the housing this region actually needs. The rent roll tells the story; we know how to read it.

How it works

Purchase or Refinance

Purchase, rate-and-term refinance, and cash-out refinance on stabilized multi-family property.

Underwritten on the property's income

Net operating income against the proposed payment (debt service coverage), plus appraised value (loan-to-value). Owner experience and liquidity matter too. 

Structures matched to your hold period

Fixed for a set term with a reset or maturity, amortized over [FPO: years]. [FPO-VERIFY: structures offered; balloon vs. fully amortizing; prepayment terms]

Cash-out proceeds

Cash-out proceeds can fund improvements, unit turns, or the down payment on your next building.

Third-party reports

Appraisal, and typically an environmental review. [FPO-VERIFY]

Good fit for

Investors who plan to hold, not flip.

  • First-time investors stepping up from a two-family to a real apartment building

  • Established local owners refinancing off a maturing balloon or a rate that no longer makes sense

  • Owners improving units to meet demand, with cash-out to fund the work

  • Buyers of mixed-use buildings where apartments carry the income and a storefront rounds it out

Frequently Asked Questions

Multifamily properties usually have 1-4 units. Tell us what you're looking to do, and a commercial lender will walk you through your options. 

Lenders want the property's net income to cover the loan payment with a cushion- a ratio comfortably above 1.25x is generally sought. We'll run your rent roll against the proposed loan before you spend on an appraisal.

Many of our members grow one building at a time this way.
