Commercial loans are used to finance income-producing properties that fall outside standard residential guidelines, such as multifamily (typically 5+ units), mixed-use buildings, retail, office, and other commercial real estate. These loans focus on the property’s income, operating expenses, and overall performance, and they’re often structured with terms that match the business plan, such as longer amortizations, adjustable rates, or balloon options. Commercial financing is ideal for investors looking to acquire, refinance, or expand into larger assets and more complex properties.
