How Fort Collins deals
actually look

Fort Collins and Larimer County investors often own duplexes and fourplexes near Colorado State University, single-family rentals in established neighborhoods, and small commercial on College Avenue and Harmony Road corridors. Student and young-professional demand shapes lease terms and turnover, which lenders read on the rent roll.

Unit count still drives the program. A fourplex near campus is 1 to 4 Unit DSCR. An eight unit building off Shields Street is 5 to 10 Unit DSCR. Larger apartment refinances route to 10+ Unit DSCR when unit count exceeds ten.

What investors own here

Small commercial on corridors

College Avenue and Harmony Road retail and office fit Commercial DSCR. Student housing with 11+ units may need specialized documentation on multifamily programs.

Local complications

What slows deals here

Student turnover

Annual lease cycles and summer vacancy must be reflected in trailing income, not just fall semester peak rents.

High values versus rent growth

Northern Front Range appreciation can outpace rent increases on some properties. DSCR may need conservative market rent assumptions or lower leverage.

Hail and roof condition

Hail-prone roofs on older stock often need replacement reserves reflected in NOI or repair credits at appraisal.
