While most multi family properties are designed to allow the peaceful coexistence of many families within their separate units, some apartments and houses give you the feeling that you’re actually living in one big family. Things like sharing one washer and dryer between five families means you never know whose underwear you’ll have to fish out of the washer before you start your own laundry. And a shared water heater means that now there’s an incentive to early morning classes. Catching the ‘Cosby Show’ every night at seven through your living room wall keeps you conveniently updated on the latest goings-on in the Huxtable home.

While living in multi family housing may not be an ideal situation for some tenants, it can be a way to wealth for the person collecting the rent. My own landlord, also currently a college student, manages several properties for his wealthy, out-of-state family, collecting a handsome property manager’s fee in the process. Sure he had to evict the people upstairs, replace the roof, renovate the unit next door, and perform other sundry tasks, but at the end of the month, he’s got another $2500 in the bank.

One time while he was fixing a clogged drain at our place I asked him how his family got to be so successful in the multi family investment property business. He told me that his family hadn’t always been the housing barons they are today; after scraping together everything they had, even borrowing from extended family, they still had to take out a substantial loan from a local bank. With this they bought their first multi family property-an old duplex three blocks from the university. Although the location was great, being as close to campus as it was, the purchase had depleted the family’s financial resources to the point were they had to move into the property while renting out the other half. From this experience, my landlord’s family gained some useful insight into multi family apartment financing.

Several weeks later I had the opportunity to speak with my landlord’s father, the owner of the property my wife and I were currently living in. While enquiring about his investment property business I learned a little about multi family investment property financing. According to him, most lenders will only provide financing for multi family dwellings of five units or more, with a minimum loan amount of $500,000. Apparently it isn’t worth a lender’s time to finance smaller inves
