How Harrisburg deals
actually look

Harrisburg and Dauphin County offer investor inventory dominated by pre-war rowhomes, duplex conversions, and modest apartment buildings with price points below Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. The four-to-five unit cliff shows up frequently when a renovated fourplex is compared to a six unit building one block away on a different program.

Properties downtown and along neighborhood commercial corridors may include mixed use with retail ground floors. Commercial-led mixed use routes to Commercial DSCR. Residential-led apartments route by unit count on DSCR multifamily programs.

Property stock

What investors own here

Rowhomes and affordable small residential

Midtown, Uptown, and Shipoke hold two to four unit rowhomes and doubles, often purchased between $100K and $280K. DSCR minimum loan sizes of $250K may require appropriate leverage when purchase prices are modest.

Fourplex and sixplex stock

Four legal units stays on residential DSCR. Six units moves to 5 to 10 Unit DSCR with portfolio-style rent roll review. Confirm certificates when units were added over time.

Mixed use downtown and corridor retail

Second Street, Market Street, and neighborhood commercial strips combine apartments above retail and office. Retail-led income fits Commercial DSCR when commercial rent drives the story.

Local complications

What slows deals here

Lower rents versus minimum loan sizes

Purchase prices may be modest while DSCR minimums start at $250K residential and $500K on small multifamily. Leverage and property count may need adjustment.

Older housing condition

Pre-1940 rowhomes often need capex reserves reflected in NOI or repair credits at appraisal before permanent debt fits.

Title and heir property issues

Older Harrisburg inventory sometimes carries title clouds that must clear before refinance.
