Can you finance a condo at 785 S Marengo Ave?
With 8 residences, 785 S Marengo Ave is in the 2 to 10 unit range, so a conventional loan here may qualify for a project review waiver (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, since March 18, 2026). That holds as long as the building isn't flagged by Fannie Mae and the insurance meets the rules. At 8 units, it also can't be part of a master association for the waiver to apply.
The 15% reserve test arriving January 4, 2027 is part of the Full Review, which a building this size may not need. Lenders can add their own requirements, and the unit count decides the path, so confirm it with the HOA.
Conventional loans go up to $1,249,125 in LA County in 2026. Above that, a jumbo lender applies its own condo rules, and a non-QM loan, built for buildings or buyers outside agency rules, typically means more down and a higher rate.
