Understanding Multifamily Financing

Before diving into the different multifamily financing strategies, it’s important to understand what multifamily financing is and how it works. Multifamily financing refers to the financial instruments used to finance the purchase, development, or renovation of apartment buildings or other multifamily properties. These properties typically have five or more residential units and financing them can be a complex process. Multifamily financing can come in many forms, including commercial mortgages, bridge loans, mezzanine financing and preferred equity.

GILKO CAPITAL’s Multifamily Financing Strategies

At GILKO CAPITAL, we offer a variety of multifamily financing solutions to meet the unique needs of our clients. Our experienced team of financing specialists works with clients to find the best possible financing solutions for your specific situations. Here are some of the multifamily financing strategies that we offer:

1. Commercial Mortgages:
   Commercial mortgages are a common form of multifamily financing. With a commercial mortgage, the lender provides the borrower with a loan to purchase, renovate, or refinance a multifamily property. The loan is secured by the property itself, and the borrower is typically required to make monthly payments over a set period, typically 5 to 25 years. At GILKO CAPITAL, we can help you secure a commercial mortgage with competitive rates and flexible terms.

2. Bridge Loans:
   Bridge loans are another financing option for multifamily properties. These loans are typically short-term and are used to finance the purchase or renovation of a property while waiting for permanent financing to become available. Bridge loans can help investors move quickly on deals and can be especially useful in competitive markets. GILKO CAPITAL can help you secure a bridge loan with competitive rates and flexible terms.

3. Mezzanine Financing:
   Mezzanine financing is a type of financing that sits between equity and debt financing. In mezzanine financing, the lender provides the borrower with a loan that is secured by the property’s equity. Mezzanine financing is often used when a borrower needs additional financing beyond what is available through traditional financing options. GILKO CAPITAL can help you secure mezzanine financing with competitive rates and flexible terms.

4. Preferred Equity:
   Preferred equity is a form of financing that sits between debt and equity financing. With preferred equity, the investor provides the borrower with funds in exchange for an equity stake in the property. Preferred equity can be a good option for borrowers who need additional financing beyond what is available through traditional financing options. GILKO CAPITAL can help you secure preferred equity with competitive rates and flexible terms.
