How to Make Lenders of Commercial Real Estate Loans Want to Approve Your Loan

timeshare resales  3When it comes time to apply for commercial real estate loans, you can appear much more desirable to lenders by having certain characteristics. If you follow this advice, you will have lenders in the palm of your hand — and have the pick of the loan you want!

For the most part, reputable lenders want to work with reputable business owners that are in need of financing. It can be a win-win situation for both parties involved. Especially if you are a business owner that has all their financial ducks in a row, so to speak. You don’t have to have a spotless credit history — though that is a very good start. But there are also some other things that make you desirable in the eyes of lenders.

Being prepared is good advice for pretty much every area of life — and particularly when it comes to commercial real estate loans. You should do your due diligence to make sure you understand what kind of loan you are looking to obtain, you have your financial documentation in order, you have prepared a business plan that outlines your needs, showcases your marketing strategy, and proves to the lender how you intend to make money and are able to pay back the loan.

Being honest is another great trait that lenders find very desirable. While you are not expected to be perfect, it’s important to be authentic. Trying to hide the truth about any past credit or financial discrepancy is bound to come out eventually. It’s best to be upfront and honest from the get-go. Lenders typically understand that not everyone has a squeaky-clean business record. But it’s important to show that you understand you made a mistake, learned from it and will not repeat said mistake again.  

Being proactive when it comes to securing a loan may improve your chances of eligibility for commercial real estate loans.

Another way to be prepared is to put some thought and effort into loan collateral. If you are going to be using collateral as a down payment, be prepared to showcase that. This is an important element of the eligibility of the application, and helps with loan-to-value requirements as well.

The lender for your commercial loans is on your side — and wants a successful application process for a win-win situation.
