Financing
Buying Power & Options
Financing a condo in Florida is different than buying a single-family home. We help you navigate the nuances of HOA budgets, reserves, and loan types.
See What You Qualify ForConventional Loans
The most common route. Requires the condo project to be "warrantable" (meet Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac guidelines).
FHA & VA Loans
Great for lower down payments, but the specific condo building must be on the FHA/VA approved list.
Jumbo & Non-QM
For luxury properties exceeding limits, or for "non-warrantable" condos (Condotels, high investor concentration).
Crucial Considerations
-
HOA Reserves Lenders review the budget. Low reserves can require higher down payments.
-
Insurance Understand the "Master Policy" vs "HO-6" (walls-in) insurance.
-
Approval Process Many condos require board approval and interviews before purchase.
