Condo Mortgage From a Florida Mortgage Broker

Financing a Florida condo means qualifying twice: you and the building. Lenders run a condo project review for warrantability, and Florida's post-Surfside reserve and inspection rules have made that review the make-or-break step.

A warrantable condo — adequate reserves, low investor concentration, no major litigation, manageable delinquencies — finances with conventional or FHA at low down payments. A non-warrantable condo needs a portfolio or non-QM loan, usually with more down. In Florida, failed milestone inspections and underfunded reserves are the common reasons a project fails review.

As a broker we know which lenders approve which Florida buildings and we order the project review early, before you waste an inspection on a unit whose building will not pass. That alone saves Florida condo buyers weeks.

Condo Questions

What makes a Florida condo warrantable?

A warrantable condo has adequate reserves, no major litigation, owner-occupancy and investor limits within guidelines, and low HOA delinquencies. Florida's milestone inspection and reserve-funding laws now weigh heavily. We pull the project review before you commit.

Can I get a mortgage on a non-warrantable condo?

Yes, through portfolio or non-QM lenders that approve the unit even when the project fails standard review. You usually need more down and accept a slightly higher rate. We match the building to a lender that will finance it.
