The Power of Life Company Financing for Multifamily Investments

Posted on February 22, 2025

Rising receiverships and foreclosures underscore the risks of short-term bridge loans in today’s multifamily market. For greater stability, consider long-term, fixed-rate financing from life insurance companies.

SF Capital’s Director, Ryan Denomme, has seen firsthand the challenges borrowers face. Short-term loans expose them to refinancing risk, potentially leading to maturity defaults and forced paydowns. Life company loans, often fully amortized with no performance covenants, offer a powerful alternative.

Benefits of Life Company Financing:

  • Eliminate Maturity Risk: Fully amortizing loans remove the need for refinancing, mitigating market volatility, while periodic open periods provide flexibility.

  • Reduce Covenant Pressure: Fewer performance covenants provide long-term security.

  • Predictable Debt Service: Fixed rates ensure consistent payments, simplifying cash flow management.

  • Long-Term Perspective: Life companies understand real estate cycles and offer greater stability.

In today’s uncertain market, stability is key. Life company financing provides a solid foundation for your multifamily investments.
