Small-Balance Commercial Loans

Commercial Property Loans From $250K to $1M

Getting a small loan for a commercial property is often more complicated than obtaining a very large commercial loan. As it goes in capital markets, the costs are generally fixed as far as lenders are concerned. As a result, lenders spend the same amount of money — and sometimes more time — to originate a $1 million loan as they do for a $100 million loan. This results in many commercial lenders shying away from small-balance commercial loans.

With Commercial Real Estate Loans, you can apply for a commercial mortgage regardless of the size — and count on being approved. Our team focuses on niche lenders. We work with bankers physically located in the property submarket and then leverage our underwriting, existing relationships, technology, and years of experience to negotiate the best small-balance commercial loan terms you could imagine.
