What you need to know about NON Warrantable Condos, Fl

This is a guest blog post from Tony Marks concerning Non-Warrantable Condos here in the Tampa Bay area.  Buyers in our local Real Estate Market are seeing a large number of condos that cannot obtain financing and here’s why.

“I took time to check with my lenders, and none of them at the moment offer mortgages for Non-Warrantable Condos in FLORIDA. (They do in other states). “
 
Non Warrantable Condos are not eligible to be sold to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac because they DO NOT fit into one of the following:
 
1. Developers control of the homeowners association has been turned over to the condo owners
2. Project is not subject to additional phasing or add-ons which have not yet been completed
3. All common elements and amenities must be fully installed, completed and in operation
4. 70% of all units in the entire development must have been sold and or legally obligated to close
5. 70% of all units in the entire development must have been sold to owner occupants
Lenders determine eligibility by requiring the management company to complete a questionnaire.
 
CLASS II

1. Recent or current condominium conversions (from apartments)
2. Homeowners association has been controlled by the unit owners (other than the developer) for less than two years
3. Project is not subject to phasing or add-ons which have not yet been completed
4. All common elements and amenities are fully installed, completed and in operation
5. 70% of the units in the entire development must have been sold and/or legally obligated to close
6. 70% of the units in the entire development must have been sold to owner occupants
7. No more than 15% of the current unit owners are more than one month delinquent in payment of homeowners dues or assessments

CLASS III

1. Homeowners Association has been controlled by unit owners (other than developer) for at least one year
2. Project is not subject to phasing or add-ons
3. All common amenities are fully installed, completed, and in operation
4. 90% of the units have been sold (owner-occupancy of at least 60%)
