Common Questions

Fort Lauderdale Mortgage FAQ

What is the conforming loan limit in Broward County for 2026? +

What is the FHA loan limit in Broward County? +

Can I get a DSCR loan for a Fort Lauderdale vacation rental? +
Yes. Fort Lauderdale's short-term rental market - particularly Las Olas, the beach, and Victoria Park - is strong enough that DSCR loans frequently work well. Lenders use either actual leases or a market rent analysis to determine qualifying income.
How long does it take to close on a home in Fort Lauderdale? +
Timelines depend on the loan program, appraisal, title and how quickly documents come in. We will map out a realistic timeline for your contract before you commit.
Do you work with buyers on waterfront and barrier-island condos? +
Yes - and knowing the nuances matters. Condos on barrier islands often require non-warrantable condo financing. Flood zone designations affect insurance requirements and costs, which factor into DTI calculations. We have experience with coastal Fort Lauderdale property requirements.
