FAQs

  • What is commercial property finance?

    Commercial property finance is a type of lending aimed at funding the purchase, development or refurbishment of a commercial building. This can include office spaces, retail units, warehouses and other types of commercial real estate a business owner may look to acquire. The finance typically involves commercial property loans tailored to meet the specific needs and repayment capacities of business owners.

  • How does commercial property finance differ from residential property finance?

    Commercial property finance is financing that can only be accessed by business owners or real estate investors, while residential finance is geared toward individuals looking to purchase a home to live or invest in. Commercial property finance may also involve higher risks and larger loan amounts than residential property finance, resulting in stricter lending criteria and often higher interest rates.

  • What types of commercial properties can be financed?

    Various commercial properties can be financed, including office buildings, retail spaces like shops and shopping centres, industrial properties such as warehouses and factories, hospitality venues like hotels and restaurants and multifamily residential buildings that serve as investment properties.

  • What are the typical loan terms for commercial property finance?

    Typical loan terms for commercial property finance range from 5 to 20 years, but can extend up to 30 years for certain types of properties and agreements. Interest rates can be higher compared to residential loans, reflecting the increased risk for lenders. Commercial property loans may also be structured on an interest-only basis for initial periods, transitioning to principal and interest payments later.

  • What are the eligibility criteria for obtaining commercial property finance?

    Commercial property finance differs widely from standard personal financing, from loan structure to fees and eligibility requirements. For instance, lenders may ask for a strong business credit history, a solid business plan and a stable income to assure lenders of the borrower's capacity to repay the loan.  


    Lenders may also want to evaluate the property's value, its potential to generate income and the borrower's experience managing commercial properties before issuing the loan.
