How It Works
How commercial mortgage financing works
Commercial lending underwrites the asset and its cash flow first, and the sponsor second. The property must service its own debt with room to spare.
- 01
Underwrite net operating income
Gross income minus operating expenses produces NOI — the number every commercial decision is built on.
- 02
Debt service coverage
Lenders typically require NOI to exceed the annual debt payment by 20–25%.
- 03
Loan-to-value & equity
Commonly 65–75% financing, so plan on 25–35% equity plus closing reserves.
- 04
Sponsor review
Global cash flow, liquidity, net worth and experience with the asset class all factor in.
- 05
Third-party reports
Commercial appraisal, environmental screening and often a property condition report. Budget time and cost for these.
- 06
Terms & amortization
Fixed for 5–10 years, amortized over 20–30, frequently with a balloon at term. We plan the exit up front.
Your Options
Commercial property types and structures
Every asset class prices differently. Here is where we place deals most often.
- Multifamily 5+ units
- The most liquid commercial class with the most competitive pricing.
- Mixed-use
- Retail or office below, residential above — common in downtown corridors.
- Retail & office
- Underwritten heavily on tenant quality and remaining lease term.
- Industrial & warehouse
- Strong demand fundamentals and generally favorable underwriting.
- Owner-occupied / SBA-style
- Higher leverage when your own business occupies the space.
- Bridge & value-add
- Short-term financing to stabilize an asset before permanent debt.
Honest Advice
What makes a commercial deal fundable
Commercial approvals hinge on a handful of numbers. Knowing them before you write an offer saves months.
Ideal for you
A great fit if you have…
Documented rent roll
Clean leases, verified rents and a real expense history make underwriting straightforward.
Liquid sponsor
Post-closing liquidity is often the deciding factor on borderline deals.
Relevant experience
Track record in the same asset class improves both approval odds and leverage.
Another program may win
Consider alternatives if you have…
Thin coverage
If DSCR lands near 1.15, expect lower leverage or a decline. We test this before you spend money.
Vacancy & rollover
Multiple leases expiring at once is a real risk factor lenders price for.
Balloon risk
A five-year balloon requires a refinance or sale plan on day one, not in year four.
