Questions brokers ask.

What changes for high-balance multi-unit properties?

The JMAC Freddie Mac matrix limits high-balance two-unit loans to 85% and three- to four-unit loans to 80% for the listed purchase / rate-and-term structures.

Can a purchase figure be used for cash-out?

No. Cash-out has separate occupancy and unit-count limits. Review the proposed purpose before using a leverage figure.
