Appendix A to Part 628 - [Effective 1/1/2025] Loan-to-Value Limits for High Volatility Commercial Real Estate Exposures

Loan category Loan-to-value limit (percent)
Raw Land65
Land development75
Construction:
Commercial, multifamily,1 and other non-residential80
1- to 4-family residential85
Improved property85
Owner-occupied 1- to 4-family and home equity2 85

1 Multifamily construction includes condominiums and cooperatives.

2 If a loan is covered by private mortgage insurance, the loan-to-value (LTV) may exceed 85 percent to the extent that the loan amount in excess of 85 percent is covered by the insurance. If a loan is guaranteed by Federal, State, or other governmental agencies, the LTV limit is 97 percent.

The loan-to-value limits should be applied to the underlying property that collateralizes the loan. For loans that fund multiple phases of the same real estate project (e.g., a loan for both land development and construction of an office building), the appropriate loan-to-value limit is the limit applicable to the final phase of the project funded by the loan; however, loan disbursements should not exceed actual development or construction outlays. In situations where a loan is fully cross-collateralized by two or more properties or is secured by a collateral pool of two or more properties, the appropriate maximum loan amount under loan-to-value limits is the sum of the value of each property, less senior liens, multiplied by the appropriate loan-to-value limit for each property. To ensure that collateral margins remain within the limits, System institutions should redetermine conformity whenever collateral substitutions are made to the collateral pool.
