Frequently asked questions

Can I finance a Brickell condo that allows short-term rentals?
Possibly. The unit, rental structure and project must fit a lender's condotel or non-warrantable guidelines and receive approval.
Why do Brickell lenders ask for the condo budget?
The budget helps evaluate reserves, assessments, insurance and project eligibility under the selected program.
Can foreign income be used for a Brickell purchase?
Certain foreign-national programs can review documented overseas income and assets, subject to lender guidelines.
Does a pending special assessment stop Brickell financing?
Not automatically, but the amount, purpose and payment status can affect project and borrower approval.
