Commercial loans can take 2 different forms – owner-occupied mortgages and investment mortgages. When the collateral is owner-occupied, the property’s sponsor(s) use over 50% of the building’s useable square footage for their personal businesses. Any other use makes the collateral investment property. Commercial properties must be zoned appropriately and should not contain any residential zoning or dwellings on the property. Because we have access to various financial institutions’ wholesale programs, we can offer you the most competitive interest rates with no up-front fees and reduced financing costs. Although we will consider any property type, CLD’s preferred collateral types include: office, retail, industrial, hospital & healthcare, self-storage, hotel, mixed use, and churches.

Conventional mortgages can be used for any property type. Maximum leverage can range from 75-85% (in limited circumstances and areas). Personal guarantees are typically required, but may be waived or limited on occasion, depending on the leverage and program.
