Commercial Loan LTV Ratio

The loan-to-value (LTV) ratio is probably the most important of the 3 underwriting ratios. The loan-to-value ratio is defined as:

LTV Ratio = Total Loan Balances (1st mtg+2nd mtg +3rd mtg) / Fair Market Value of the Property

First let's look at the numerator. If the borrower is only applying for a first mortgage and there will be no other loans on the property, then the beginning balance of the new loan requested should be inserted in the numerator.

However, if the borrower is applying for a second mortgage, then the "underwriter" (the person who determines whether or not the loan qualifies) should insert the sum of the first and second mortgages in the numerator. Similarly, if the borrower is applying for a third mortgage, then the underwriter should insert the sum of the first, second and third mortgages into the numerator.

When the borrower is applying for a second or third mortgage, the loan-to-value ratio is often known as the combined loan-to-value ratio (CLTV ratio).

Now let's look at the denominator. Generally the fair market value of a property is determined by an appraisal. There is one important exception, however. When the proceeds of a mortgage loan are used to buy the same property that is securing the loan, then that mortgage is known as a "purchase money loan." If the appraisal comes in lower than the purchase price in a "purchase money" transaction, then the lender will use the LOWER of the purchase price or appraisal.
