There are many pros to working with professional and experienced commercial lenders. However, every lender has a different specialty so it’s important to understand their expertise before deciding to work with any particular lender.
It’s much easier to work with skilled commercial lenders when its time to obtain a loan. They can benefit you in many ways and assist with specific needs and questions you may have as you go through the process. However, it’s important that you are working with a lender that understands and specializes in your market or niche to make sure that they can best benefit your specific needs.
It’s also a good idea to flesh out your specific needs before meeting with commercial lenders so you can ensure you can properly express your needs. If you are looking to obtain funding via a local credit union or non-traditional lender versus a conventional lending institution like a bank, you’ll want to understand that the processes and requirements will be different. One of the benefits of a credit union is they are fairly stable through economic ups and downs, so they are more likely to lend a higher amount than a bank that has more rigid lending requirements. Credit unions are also more likely to take a chance on a first time borrower, new business or small business.
Another benefit of seeking a loan through credit union commercial lenders is that they typically have lower fees and rates that are more reasonable than conventional banks, hard money lenders or short-term loans. Because credit unions are in a different category than conventional lending institutions, and actually considered non-profit organizations, it is more like using a private lending to obtain funding. This is beneficial to you because they are able to offer better benefits.
Commercial lenders can be the experts you need to help you streamline your approval process.
These professionals are well versed in the application process and they know exactly what is required from the borrower (aka you) in order to ensure eligibility. So it’s very beneficial to utilize a lender in your specific niche to help you get the most “bang for your buck.” Working with a local credit union is also beneficial because these experts understand the market you are in and can help your business based on that knowledge.
How to get the most “bang for your buck” when it comes to your commercial loan.
Doing your research before you meet with lenders is a good idea. Be as prepared are you can prior to meeting with any type of lender by having your documentation in order, being prepared to showcase the collateral you have and prepare a solid business plan that details your intention for your business. Being prepared can be very beneficial in the loan approval process as well. Once you have all your ducks in a row, you may find eligibility to be a lot easier and smoother, especially with the help of the right type of lender for you and your business.
