01
Delayed Financing
Recently paid cash? Review whether a delayed financing exception could let you recover eligible funds before the ownership waiting period.
02
Cash-Out Refinance
Explore a new mortgage on a property you own outright. Available proceeds depend on value, loan limits, ownership timing, and qualifications.
03
Rental Property Financing
For an investment property, review financing that may consider rental cash flow, including available DSCR programs. Lender requirements vary.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I get financing after paying cash for a property?
Potentially. The right route depends on when you purchased, how you paid, the property type and use, and your qualifications. A property owned outright can still serve as collateral for a new loan.
What is delayed financing?
It is an exception that can allow eligible cash buyers to refinance soon after purchase instead of waiting for standard ownership seasoning. It is a new loan secured by the property, with closing costs and monthly payments—not a refund of the purchase price.
Do I have to wait six months?
Not always. Fannie Mae has a delayed financing exception for qualifying purchases within the past six months. Specific documentation and eligibility rules apply, and other programs have their own timing requirements.
Can I get all of my cash back?
Not necessarily. The loan is limited by program rules, eligible documented investment, property value, and maximum loan-to-value ratios. Closing costs and any required debt payoff also affect the amount you receive.
What documents should I keep?
Keep the purchase settlement statement, proof of the source and transfer of purchase funds, title information, and any loan documents for funds borrowed elsewhere. Income, assets, credit, appraisal, and rental records may also be required.
What if I used a HELOC or borrowed money to buy?
Tell us how the purchase was funded. Under the Fannie Mae delayed financing exception, proceeds must pay off or pay down qualifying debt used for the purchase, as applicable. The source and use of funds must be documented.
Can a rental property or LLC qualify?
Rental properties may have conventional, DSCR, or other investor financing options. Entity ownership and title history affect eligibility; an LLC structure does not qualify for every program.
Does financing make sense if I can afford to pay cash?
Compare the value of keeping cash available with interest, fees, monthly obligations, and the risk of securing debt against the property. Financing is optional; the goal is a structure that fits your plans and ability to repay.
