Florida Condo Delayed Financing Mortgage

Florida Condo Delayed Financing

Condos can be a great way to build equity and have the benefits of homeownership without the responsibilities of maintaining a standalone property.

Condo Delayed Financing is a tactic involving the initial cash purchase of a condo, followed by obtaining a mortgage after the closing. This approach aims to distinguish buyers during the home-buying process and expedite the property acquisition. Cash buyers typically wield greater negotiating power in conventional real estate transactions, offering advantages that appeal to sellers.

By implementing a cash-out refinance post-closing, buyers unlock the funds initially used for the condo purchase. Subsequently, buyers can transition to making regular long-term payments on the condo, resembling the structure of a traditional mortgage from the outset.

It is important to note that not all condos are classified as the same. Here in Florida, condo are classified as  warrantable condo, non-warrantable condo, or a condotel

  • Reclaim your funds: Post-purchase financing liberates cash that can be directed towards various expenses, including home improvements or the acquisition of a second property.

  • Non-Warrantable Condo Properties available

Condominiums are defined differently than Single Family Homes

Condominiums are a single, individually-owned housing unit in a multi-unit building. The condominium owner holds sole title to the unit, but owns land and common property (elevators, halls, roof, stairs, etc.) jointly with other unit owners, and shares the upkeep expenses on the common-property with them. Unit owner pays property taxes only on his or her unit, and may mortgage, or sell it just like any other personal property. Condos have slighly higher interest rates than single family homes.
