Some banks don't do small loans, and some do.
There is at least 20% down requirement in Miami, unless FHA.
Best, to speak to different lenders - banks, mortgage companies, credit unions and local banks like Regions Bank - all have different guidelines (rules of lending) - to see if you can get the loan.
Maybe you can buy it as a 2nd home?
Hope it helps,

Most condos require at least 25% down.
Your re-fi loan officer should be able to answer your questions about being able to qualify.
If he/she can't then go here, it offers genuine advice:

There is a possibility you could get a loan to help your student son purchase a condo. Overall it would depend on your debt to income ratio amongst several other factors. If interested I know a direct lender I could you put you in contact with here in Miami. They have programs that don't require a minimum loan amount. Give me a call to discuss further 786-704-8482.
