Qualifications for a Commercial Mortgage

Commercial mortgages are different from residential mortgages as the overall lending exposure known as the Loan to Value for a commercial property typically ranges between 65%-75%, with a maximum loan to value of 85%.  Lenders traditionally require a larger down payment and offer a slightly higher interest rate than residential loans.

All commercial deals are handled on a case-by-case scenario, but some of the standard documentation that is required up front and will determine your eligibility are:

  • Type of collateral and creditworthiness of the borrowing entity - 2 or 3 years of both business and personal financial statements and income tax returns as well as a personal net worth statements for all borrowers/guarantors.
  • Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) - The DSCR or debt service coverage ratio is the calculation of a property's annual net operating income (NOI) and/or cashflow of the property divided by its annual mortgage debt service (principal and interest payments).
  • Appraisal & Environmental report (if completed)
  • Purchase and sale agreements (for purchases)
  • Performa (if planning on developing on site)
  • Lease agreements and rent rolls (if applicable)
