Underlying Mortgages on Cooperative Buildings

At MortgageDepot, we pride ourselves on being the authoritative source borrowers come to for financing the purchase of commercial space or apartments in cooperative buildings. Helping borrowers finance their purchase of shares in a cooperative is only one of the services our mortgage loan originators offer when it comes to co-ops.

Our mortgage loan originators facilitate financing the underlying mortgage to acquire cooperative buildings and properties. We also work with co-op corporations to refinance existing underlying mortgages at lower interest rates and favorable terms.

Underlying mortgages

Financing the acquisition of a cooperative building is a loan to the corporation that owns or will own the building. The loan is secured by a mortgage on the building or real property in much the same way borrowers finance the purchase of residential and commercial properties and condominiums. The mortgage is frequently referred to as either an underlying mortgage or a blanket mortgage.
