Your business is important to you - no matter what stage of business you are in, from start up to established. A business needs a 'home', which is a commercial building. A business without a commercial site is a home business. A business where people can walk in, see what you have for sale, and make a purchase, is an established commercial business. A business that is in the process of purchasing a building or the land to build a building is one that is becoming established or a business that is growing.
Obtaining a commercial mortgage from a lender is similar to that of obtaining a residential mortgage with a few exceptions. The commercial mortgage lender is going to review your income, both personally and as a business. If you are an established business, the commercial mortgage lender will review the income of the business over the last three years.
If you are a new business, the commercial mortgage lender will review your potential income as a business (in the form of a business plan) and the commercial mortgage lender will review the information of your personal income as the owner of the business. If there are more than one owner, for the business, the commercial mortgage lender will require information about the income from all those who are participating in the business, who are going to 'sign' for the commercial mortgage loan.
A commercial mortgage is going to differ in the terms of repayment and in the interest rates as well. For the commercial mortgage for a business that is well established with a high income and few accounts payable, the interest rate on the commercial mortgage could be lower, or at least you should be asking for a lower interest rate. For the commercial mortgage, for a business that is just starting out, often the interest rate is higher, as you have not established a credit rating yet.
A commercial mortgage lender is financial institution that provides loans to businesses for the start up and the purchase of a building to start a business. The financial institution often times will require a business plan. A business plan is an outline of where the business is now, and where the business will be one year from now, five years from now, and what is the overall life of the business in general. The business plan does not have to be 'long' but it should detail the over all business income and expenses.
