Triplex Mortgage From a Florida Mortgage Broker

A triplex is still residential financing — properties of two to four units qualify for the same owner-occupied loan programs as a single-family home, just with more rental income to count.

Live in one of the three units and you can use FHA at 3.5% down, conventional, or VA at $0 down, while the rent from the other two units offsets your payment in the debt ratio. FHA applies its self-sufficiency test on three- and four-unit properties, so the rents must cover the payment — we check that math before you offer.

As an investment, a triplex uses DSCR or conventional investor financing with 20%-25% down, qualified largely on the property's rental cash flow. We structure it around your plan.

FAQ

Triplex Questions

Is a triplex residential or commercial financing?

Residential. Properties of two to four units qualify for residential loan programs — FHA, VA, and conventional — not commercial loans. That keeps the rates low and the down payment small when you occupy a unit.

What is the FHA self-sufficiency test on a triplex?

On three- and four-unit FHA loans, the property's rental income must cover the full mortgage payment. It is meant to ensure the building pays for itself. We run the test on your target property before you write an offer so there are no surprises.
