According to a senior underwriter at Terrace Capital, “The Fannie Mae program generally provides the most advantageous rates for non-recourse, multifamily loans with rates on 5 year money, sub 55% LTV, as low as 2.82%. The program’s underwriting criteria has generally become more conservative over the last few years, as Fannie Mae is under a US government conservatorship. On September 7, 2008, James Lockhart, director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), announced that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were being placed into conservatorship of the FHFA. Terrace has successfully executed on multifamily, non-recourse CMBS transactions, in states where Fannie and Freddie Mac have restricted loan-to-value ratios of 65%, these states include; Indiana, Florida, Michigan, Ohio and several MSAs in Texas, Georgia, Arizona, California, Louisiana and Nevada.”
