Commercial Real Estate Lives!

Commercial Real Estate Lives!

I have just completed an extended vacation that took me through 6 states. Along the way I took some time to survey the status of commercial real estate in both existing and property under construction.

I’m pleased to report that contrary to what the “media” has to say, all is NOT doom and gloom. Even in Las Vegas, one of the most overbuilt markets in the country, I found construction activity on several projects. Many retail and office complexes seemed active and occupied, restaurants had patrons, and stores were ringing up sales, (oh … and the casinos were doing just fine).

On the other hand, I did see a fantastic deal of inactivity on some large construction projects there and in other western states. Cranes idle, no workers on the job, and fences locked. For some commercial real estate investors, this is the end of the line for these projects.

But, these are also tomorrow’s opportunities for those positioned to take advantage of them.

You may not know that we have a very special loan program for construction projects in default, foreclosure, or bankruptcy.

You can find information on it here: www.ExcelsionMortgage.com/CPR2. If you have a construction project in distress, you will WANT to find out about this program.

I will soon conduct several webinars on the subject because the opportunity for you to turn your project around is simply staggering.

Also be on the lookout for some “premium” content in the near future here. We will be ramping up the commercial support in the next few weeks and adding both membership and coaching components to this site.

Members will get access to very special information provided by experts across the spectrum of commercial real estate. Coaching participants will get real support in their commercial real estate investment activities and is geared towards those who want to take their knowledge and practice to the next level.

Stay tuned and keep investing!

Understanding Commercial Loans

Understanding Commercial Loans

Asking for a commercial loan to a financial institution can be an unsettling and excruciating process. The reason for this lays in the fact that most people ignore what criteria the financial institution goes in order to approve or reject a commercial loan request. When requesting a commercial financing it is vital to be both patient and assertive.

The financial capacity of the company requesting the commercial loan is properly evaluated in order to choose what plans are more appropriate for it. The financial plans are offered according to the conditions and financial status of the company. After thorough assessment the financial institution decides whether the commercial financing is granted or not.

Your financial records are essential to the approval of the commercial loan application. Because the bank will want to know how much debt you already have and whether you have been able to successfully make your payments.

After this, the bank will give you an application that will fill out and submit.

Once the officer receives the application for the business loan, various factors are taken into consideration prior to accepting the application. The officers will evaluate the creditworthiness of the company, the status of its income, and the amount of collateral available.

If you commercial loan is directed to the acquisition of a new building or the expansion of an existing one, you will be questioned to provide other information. For instance, the lender will question to see maps of the property you want to buy, copies of other loans you have, and the assessments of your company’s capital.

Upon reception of the commercial loan documents, the borrower is presented with a letter that carefully details the process.

The limits of the kind of security implied by parity and the funding amount must be included on the letter of agreement.

Financial institutions may take up to a week to choose the approval or rejection of a commercial loan request. Borrowers may need to supply additional information on demand. You can always negotiate the terms and conditions of the contract in order to get the best rates. In case of rejection, do not hesitate to try other financial options.

Commercial Real Estate Credit

Commercial Real Estate Credit

The status of your credit plays an vital role in helping to obtain financing from commercial real estate. Helps determine the amount of funding for which would qualify and what kind of interest rate you receive on the loan. Unfortunately, most people do not pay attention or monitoring your credit files on a regular basis. If you will invest in real estate, this is an absolute “must”.

What is excellent credit?
Excellent credit for commercial real estate investor usually means about twelve to fifteen “trade lines” of credit experienced a credit report, with several real estate loans either showing as active or have been paid success. For example, auto loans, current mortgages, and credit cards, at least two years ancient and show no late payments. Once again, for real estate investors, successful maintenance of real estate loans is a “must”.

Now granted, not everyone is perfect (in fact, very few are!) And we all have our ups and downs, so do not worry if you have a few 30 day late payments or collection accounts for some age in your credit report.

Today, credit reporting systems use a complex method of evaluating credit patterns which is distilled and published in a “credit score.” The higher the number, the lower the risk exists that a borrower is likely to “default” of a loan.

While this process, called “credit scoring” is in full use of residential loans, commercial lenders are only now beginning to adopt. There is a tendency to use by certain non-bank lenders for loans.

Most subscribers (people who will approve your loan) and underwriting systems to review his record is looking for trends. In other words, they are looking for a tale or a recent pattern of excellent or terrible credit. Isolated incidents should not affect your ability to get a loan.

How can you repair your credit?

In most cases, a simple letter or phone call to the credit card company or business that originally gave “credit” can place on the right track to having that “scar” removed from your report. May not even be necessary, but, based on recent credit patterns!

Sometimes it will require you to pay the balance of your debt or send a letter explaining why you were late on your payment. Do not pay any creditor, not to speak with a qualified professional financial adviser or consultant of the first mortgage!

But, if you have a history of recent late payments, you’re probably going to have to let time take its course (although there could be a trick or two here can be used).

There are a million scenarios that could review, but I reckon it’s vital to walk away with two key thoughts of this: 1) Your credit can make or break your ability to buy a loan and 2) you must know what is in your credit report, credit score, and start to examine and, if necessary, repair any credit problems immediately.

What role does investment play its history?

Your investment property loan history or “track record” will play an vital role in whether a lender will want to finance your next property. Investment properties, and their placements, often considered a greater credit risk than if you buy your own home. Therefore, if you have a proven record of successfully selling properties for investment or management of loans, with no delays in payments, then it is more likely to get the loan approved.

The conclusion is that “credit” or, more precisely, “credit history” is a factor in their ability to finance commercial real estate. Pay close attention to this area of your finances if you intend to be an active investor and manage your credit like one of its properties: an active way.
