Multifamily Financing
Multifamily properties remain one of the most financeable asset classes in commercial real estate. Whether you're acquiring a stabilized apartment community, developing ground-up, or repositioning a value-add asset, Brookmont Capital Ventures connects you with the right capital for your investment strategy.
Why Multifamily?
Multifamily real estate benefits from consistent demand, multiple income streams, favorable financing, scalability, and a built-in inflation hedge. These fundamentals make multifamily attractive to lenders, resulting in more financing options and better terms than most other property types.
Consistent Demand
Everyone needs a place to live. Demographic trends, affordability constraints, and lifestyle preferences continue to drive rental demand across markets, while vacancy in one unit doesn't eliminate all income.
Favorable Financing
Agency lenders (Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac) provide the most competitive terms in CRE—stable, long-term capital and a liquidity advantage unique to multifamily.
Value-Add Opportunity
Operational improvements, unit renovations, and amenity upgrades create organic rent growth and equity appreciation for active sponsors. See our value-add repositioning case study.
Multifamily Financing Options
We advise on the full spectrum of multifamily capital—matching your deal to the right debt or equity structure based on asset profile, business plan, and timeline.
Agency Loans (Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac)
For stabilized multifamily properties, agency loans offer the best terms in the market: LTV up to 80%, fixed rates with 5-30 year terms, non-recourse with standard carve-outs, and interest-only options.

For transitional assets—value-add acquisitions, lease-up situations, or properties that don't yet qualify for agency: LTC up to 80%, 12-36 month terms, interest-only payments, and renovation funding included.
Learn MoreConstruction Loans
For ground-up multifamily development: loan-to-cost up to 75%, 18-36 month terms, draw-based funding, and an interest reserve included.
Learn MoreDSCR Loans
For smaller multifamily acquisitions (2-4 units or small apartment buildings): underwritten on property cash flow, not borrower income, with LTV up to 80%. Ideal for investors scaling portfolios.
Learn MorePreferred Equity
When senior debt doesn't cover enough of the capital stack, preferred equity fills the gap between debt and sponsor equity, with typical returns of 10-15%.

Unlock equity from stabilized multifamily assets to fund acquisitions, improvements, or portfolio growth through a recapitalization.

Value-Add Multifamily Repositioning
A sponsor acquired a 96-unit garden-style apartment community in suburban Maryland with below-market rents and deferred maintenance. Brookmont structured an $8.2 million bridge loan to fund the acquisition and unit renovations. After completing upgrades and achieving stabilized occupancy at market rents, the sponsor refinanced into agency permanent financing.
