We have a loan that is secured by a commercial building that has a 2 bedroom apartment located in the commercial building. Am I correct in that if the building is 75% or greater for commercial use then the amount of flood insurance should be calculated based on the nonresidential amount and only 1 policy would be required?

We are trying to determine whether a mixed use building would require escrow. The loan is consumer purpose and only 25% of the finished space is residential. There is a drive under garage which would if included make it more than 50% residential. Would I be correct to include this space since it is used by the person living in the apartment for personal storage?

I understand the confusion, but there are multiple factors that could change an answer to your question. I would start with how you classify the building (is it residential or not?) and how the insurance agent classifies it. Is there a dwelling policy or a non-dwelling policy on it?
