How to Evaluate Commercial Lenders

How can I help you?

Learning how to evaluate commercial lenders is very much like evaluating any other kind of lender—you need to compare and contrast lenders that work for you and your needs. But, for many individuals, this process is easier said than done, so let us review some of the basics of conducting a lender search.

Commercial lenders, clearly, are their own niche but that does not mean you have done everything you need to in order to find your niche or market. Thus, the very thing you should when searching for commercial lenders is to tailor your search to your particular niche or market. In doing so, you will then be able to evaluate the different lenders and programs that they offer.

Similarly, just as you are coming up with a list of criteria for your perfect lender, the same is true for a pool of lenders. Thus, you should make it a point to find out what your top five lenders are expecting from you i.e. their criteria. Ultimately, this will help you determine what lender is best for you and what you are bringing to the table.

However, if finding a lender were as simple as knowing your niche and finding lender criteria that you can meet, there would be nothing left to say. Well, clearly that is not the case. The reality is your search and your evaluation process are really never complete. Nevertheless, at some point in your search, you have to feel comfortable with who you are choosing to work with for the foreseeable future. Of course, at this point, you may be wondering just how you are ever going to feel comfortable with one lender in particular?

This means looking for BBB ratings, speaking with business owners your potential lender has worked with in the past, evaluating their level of stability when it comes capital and much more. Lastly, you can learn about your potential lender’s repayment terms before moving forward with them.
