LARGE APARTMENT LOAN PROGRAM BENEFITS

Lowest rates on most term optionsFully amortized optionsNon Recourse

    – Key Principles must sign loan docs for borrowing entity, but do not personally guarantee the loan except for standard “carve-outs.”

Unlimited assumability

    – This loan may be assumed an unlimited number of times during the life of the loan by subsequent buyers or borrowers. There is no remaining obligation of any former borrower after each assumption. This also ties into the non-recourse feature. The flexibility and limitation of liability this provides is critical.

Supplemental financing program

    – Your property may be eligible for an attractive second and even a third mortgage one year or more after your first mortgage closes that can be used for whatever purpose you choose – to help finance a future sale or just to access cash from your property’s equity for any reason. This supplemental financing can be taken either by you or a future buyer, and is also fully assumable. This unique feature combined with the assumable feature on your original first mortgage loan makes this the most flexible program for any future plans you may have for the property.
