How To Get Financing For a Commercial Construction Loan

January 20, 2016 Leave a Comment

commercial construction loanPutting any construction project into motion is something that involves having the proper funding in place to get things
going. That’s true of general construction and those involving commercial or industrial properties, since there have been enough loans go bad over the years that lending institutions have put more rigorous steps in place to protect themselves.

More Scrutiny and More Options

The economic downturn that took place within the last decade resulted in regulations that put each loan of this type under a more detailed microscope. Two areas that stand out in this area relate to the level of expertise all pertinent aspects of a project have and how sturdy the overall risk tolerance for those entities.

When this type of loan involves a commercial project, the borrower has a number of potential borrowing partners. Years ago, that partner was almost always a bank, but with a variety of options now including private lending companies, the number of different avenues the borrower has to pursue now varies.

Types of Loans

This loan will be one of three types: short-term, long-term or combined. In the short-term variety, the loan lasts through construction or until a specific portion of a project is completed. Long-term spans the period where the commercial project has essentially been finished, and the combined concept is a mix of the two types.

Number Considerations

Despite the opening up of this process, some things remain the same. This includes a company’s credit rating, which in turn offers a window into what rate of interest will be charged.

Lenders also like to crunch numbers in order to offer legitimate reasons for either finding or rejecting a loan. These numbers are based on a variety of ratios pertaining to the loan as compared to either cost or value, profit, debt and the net worth of the commercial construction company involved in the project.

Gut Instinct

Even with using those ratios, a certain amount of human instinct goes into whatever the final decision is for the lender. One key component can be the viability of the commercial contractor, which not only includes the aforementioned net worth, but their overall history.

A commercial construction company that’s either just getting started or simply hasn’t established enough of a pedigree within the industry can make some lenders leery of going ahead with a loan.

That’s because such companies may not have factored in all the different aspects involved, which includes pre-construction areas like estimating and constructability. Either that or they haven’t seen a new project through from start to finish or a remodeling project stalls because of contracting issues related to one or more aspects of the overall plan.

However, if past history indicates that the company is one that can be virtually guaranteed to complete a project on time and on budget, the likelihood of the loan going through rises considerably. That background or the previous relationship the lender has with the commercial contractor, coupled with a business plan that appears solid, will most likely help push the loan through.
