Home ownership is knocking
Answer with a TIC loan from RCU
Overview
Housing in the San Francisco area is highly sought after, and the market continues to be competitive. With these conditions in mind, it’s a great time to find your perfect unit in a TIC (Tenants in Common) building – and finance it with an affordable TIC loan from Redwood Credit Union.
What is a TIC?
TICs are typically multi-unit buildings, like larger homes divided for multiple tenants, that are operated under a TIC agreement – a contract that allows a person to own a percentage of the title with “exclusive rights” to a particular unit and often other amenities, like parking, outbuildings, and yard space. This agreement also details house rules and restrictions.
Although the unit is owned by multiple people, it appears as one unit on records, making it more affordable than condos. Plus, unlike financing a loan for a condo, you own a portion of the entire building – not just your residence within the building.
