Can you finance a condo at 817 6th St?
With 5 residences, 817 6th St 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 5 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.
For a 1949 building with 5 residences, ask about the SB 326 balcony inspection early. If 817 6th St is subject to it, the most recent report has been part of the resale package since January 1, 2026, and an unaddressed problem in it may affect conventional lending. SB 326, explained.
