At Bluestar Mortgage, headquartered in Orlando, we specialize in condotel mortgage loan solutions tailored for buyers seeking to invest in Florida’s thriving condotel market. Our team is ready to guide you through every step of the condotel financing process.
A condotel is a unique real estate hybrid that combines the benefits of a hotel and a condominium. Each unit is individually owned but located within a building that offers hotel-style amenities such as on-site check-in desks, housekeeping services, and resort-level maintenance. Owners can use their units as second homes or list them for short-term rental, generating revenue while enjoying vacation-style living.
