Residential is 1-4 units, including an SFR standing alone.
Now if the loan were to include a number of SFRs and the borrower signed an affidavit that none of them was HIS home, a commercial loan might be made on them.

What licensing requirements are there in Ohio to originate hard money loans and advertise to sell these investments to private investors?
In California he used to originate and market hard money loans using a real estate license, and private mortgages arranged by a broker were exempt from securities laws.

Although I realize CA laws are a little tougher than most, in most states HML on commercial deals is exempt from licensing requirements.
State regulators normally don’t have any great concerns about commercial RE deals, including loans thereon…they want the homeowner’s vote, not the HML lenders.
