• Convertibility from variable-rate to fixed-rate: Ability to convert to a fixed-rate loan at any rate change date after the first 3 months

description
Berkeley Point Capital LLC offers very competitive fixed and adjustable rates under the Freddie Mac Capital Markets Execution℠ (CME) to provide a financing vehicle that connects Borrowers to the capital markets via a securitization. Freddie Mac will aggregate multifamily loans for sale or hold them in their portfolio. Loans for sale will go to a specified institutional investor(s), whom will securitize the loans and sell them to a qualified Special Purpose Entity (SPE). The SPE will then issue securitized bonds backed by the multifamily whole loans, and an investor with the appropriate risk appetite can then purchase each bond. Freddie Mac intends to guarantee or purchase the senior bonds of each issuance.
• Targeted Property Types: Multifamily, age-restricted multifamily, purpose-built student housing, multifamily with student concentration, cooperating housing, Section 8 HAP
benefits / features
• Typically provides lower interest rates over a portfolio execution; fixed and adjustable rates now available
• A Freddie Mac supplemental loan is available after the first mortgage has seasoned for 12 months
• If the appraisal for the property is less than anticipated and such difference results in a reduced loan amount that is no greater than 5 percent of the rate-locked loan amount, Freddie Mac will still purchase the mortgage at the lower loan amount and no breakage fees will be due for the 5 percent difference
