Condo Questionnaire Limited Review Form PDF Details

In an effort to streamline the evaluation process for attached condominiums, the Fannie Mae Attached Condominium Limited Review Questionnaire was developed as a critical tool. This comprehensive form touches upon various aspects necessary for ensuring adherence to Agency guidelines. From basic information like the name of the project and the total number of units, to more complex inquiries about the project's status, including completion, homeowner association (HOA) control, and the percentage of units sold. Key determinants such as whether the project operates like a hotel or motel, the existence of commercial spaces, and specific ownership patterns also play a crucial role. Moreover, it assesses the project's insurance coverage, legal standings, and other operational details, which are vital for understanding its viability and compliance with relevant laws and requirements. Additional sections focus on unique circumstances like manufactured homes, project amenities, and the financial health of the HOA. Given its exhaustive nature, the questionnaire is an essential step in due diligence for lenders, ensuring that condominium projects align with Fannie Mae's financing criteria before approval.
