What New York investors should know
Budget for closing costs
New York charges a mortgage recording tax on most loans, which adds to your cash to close. Build it into your numbers early so there are no surprises.
Eligible property types
We finance single family homes, 2 to 4 unit properties, townhomes and warrantable condos. Co-ops are not eligible.
Upstate price points
Cities like Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse offer lower purchase prices. Our fix and flip loans start at $50K and DSCR rental loans at $75K, so these deals can fit our programs.
