No way you're getting a convential loan on it... Haven't tried to sale it because Its just not a good time. The HOA has some work to do to get it looking better on the outside. Plus I would have to find a place To live in the meantime... Don't want to move twice.

I know rates could go up but we are talking a very small amount of money so the note wouldn't kill me even if they went up to 20%. But the plan is to pay the balloon when it comes due in 5 years.... Then either sale, rent , or owner finance. So a rate increase shouldn't matter

Try a local homestead. I closed on a foreclosed condo a month or so ago. I had to try a few different lenders. I eventually got a 30 year at 3.9% conventional loan. National banks/banks that spin loans off won't touch you but credit unions and homesteads will do it.

Ummm, we do conventional loans on Condos all the time with as low as 10% down. Have you tried? Is your credit good enough.I wouldn't rule it out unless you have bad credit. What kind of loan does your Dad have on it now?
