Get The Money Your Business Needs Without The Wait And Hassle You Don't Need!
You may already know the difficulties of doing business with a bank. Let's face it, between all the red tape involved and the impersonal service, you are more likely to be turned down than approved for a small commercial loan.
Like most small business and commercial property owners, you may assume that a bank is the only place to go when your business needs cash. And, like others, you may already have experienced the frustration of all the red tape involved with applying for a bank loan.
You've worked hard to build your business and so why should it be any harder to get a commercial loan?
Obtaining commercial financing is often unknown territory for many - from providing the necessary documentation, to the appraisal process, to the time it takes to close the loan.
You may already know that I arrange all types of residential mortgages but you may not know that I can also help you with your small or large commercial loan.
I have access to dozens of commercial mortgage lenders who provide commercial mortgages from $50,000 up to 25 million dollars.
Each commercial mortgage lender has its own set of guidelines and very different requirements for approving your loan.
Let me break them down into 3 groups for you:
In the first group we have "Mr. Moan & Loan". He's your "good old-fashioned traditional lender" and he wants to make it real hard for you. These are all large lenders including major banks.
Their minimum loan amount is usually from 1 million and if you don't have all your documents in order then you are out of luck.
I call this group one lenders "The Red Tape Lenders".
In the second group we have commercial mortgage lenders specializing in small commercial loans from $100,000 dollars to just over a million dollars. I like working with them because they can cut through the red tape and they can get the job done.
In the third group of commercial mortgage lenders are private mortgage lenders. These private guys will us-ually take anything and everything that the first two groups of lenders don't want. Their loans start from $50,000 and can go up to 10 million dollars.
Our Commercial Loans Include Everything BUT Red Tape!
I can help you to achieve your goals. Maybe you want new financing for operational requirements such as the need for cash to finance new inventory, receivables or business expansion.
But there are other reasons too.
You may have other loans coming due or you may want to buy out an associate or partner, or even pay off a divorce settlement.
I want you to know that I am on your side…
…I work for you and not the lender and I can do a quick pre-qualification to make sure you are eligible to get a loan.
The pre-qualification process is simple and it will quickly determine if you're “bankable”, meaning you could qualify for your loan at the bank in which case you will need to provide all documents including tax returns and financial statements and wait 90 to 120 days for your money or if you fit into the second or third group of lenders where you may be able to qualify for “low documentation” commercial loan and close in less than 30 days.
I can run various preliminary loan calculations and present you with your monthly payment options for your consideration all without any up front costs to you.
I get paid after closing of your transaction therefore if I don’t find a suitable loan for you then you don’t owe me any brokerage fees.
Speaking about fees… let me go over the different fees you will incur when obtaining a commercial mortgage loan.
- Brokerage Fees: Brokerage fees are based on your loan amount and are deducted on closing from loan proceeds. Group one lenders - brokerage fees are 1.5% of loan amount. For group two lenders brokerage fees are 3% of loan amount and for group three lenders (private lenders), brokerage fees are 5% of loan amount.
- Appraisal Fee: Commercial property appraisals are very comprehensive, often 50 pages or more. Appraisal pricing is a 3rd party fee and is standard, regardless of the lender and cost range from $1,500 to $3,500 dollars. You must be prepared to pay for this upfront cost either by certified check or charge to your credit card. The cost of the report reflects the level of information and analysis required by the lender/investor.
- Lender Fees: Lender fees start from 1% and can go up to 3.5% of loan amount. These lender administration fees are usually deducted from loan amount on closing but most lenders will ask you for non-refundable deposit ranging anywhere from $1,000 to $3,000 dollars.
- Environmental Insurance: Environmental insurance is generally used in place of a Phase I and Phase II environmental assessment. Phase I and Phase II environmental reports can be very expensive third party reports paid out of your pocket prior to the loan closing. Environmental insurance is a one time cost and paid from the proceeds at closing and the cost of the insurance can range on average $1,000 - $3,000. This is a minimal cost considering the average price of a Phase II and is important to the securitization of the loan.
- Legal Fees: Lender legal fees are usually between $2,000 to $3,000 and the process takes a longer period of time to complete (approximately 10-14 days) than do residential mortgages.
Now let’s talk about interest rates…
Commercial interest rates are NOT comparable to residential rates and group two and three lenders are not meant to be competitive with bank offerings.
If you were already approved by group one lender then please don’t apply here to shop the rate because group two and three lender rates are always higher than rates offered by group one lenders. You could be wasting your time.
Group two and three commercial mortgage lenders do not have set rates. They price their mortgages on case by case basis and their rates could be at least 2% higher than group one lender rates.
