Overview

What Is a Mixed-Use Property Loan?

A mixed-use property loan finances buildings that combine two or more uses — typically ground-floor retail or office space with residential apartments on upper floors. These properties present unique underwriting challenges because they generate income from both commercial leases and residential rents.

Traditional lenders often struggle with mixed-use properties because they don't fit neatly into commercial or residential lending boxes. At Lumen Mortgage, we blend both underwriting approaches to accurately reflect the property's combined income streams and create a financing structure that works.

Whether you're acquiring a Main Street building with shops below and apartments above, or refinancing a mixed-use development you already own, our team understands how to analyze and finance these unique assets.

Who This Is For

Investors acquiring buildings with ground-floor retail and upper-floor apartments
Property owners with office/commercial space and residential units in the same building
Developers converting single-use buildings into mixed-use properties
Small business owners who live above their shop or storefront
Portfolio investors adding mixed-use assets to diversify income streams

"With mortgage rates at historic lows, I decided to refinance. Unimpressed with my current mortgage lender's rates (Bank of America), I did some digging and found great rates that would need to be brokered privately. I remember a friend mentioning Lumen, so I fired off an email, and what do you know - ~2 weeks later I closed at a fantastic rate! 2 weeks!"
