Bank Loans

bank loansBecause Banks and other traditional lenders seek to make only very “Low Risk” loans they are often forced to say NO to many loan applications. However for Borrowers with excellent credit and strong financial statements, who are seeking to finance property that produces Net Operating Income equal to 125% to 140% of proposed loan payments, bank loans are now available at very low interest rates with high Loan to Value Ratios and terms of up to 30 years! If you meet the criteria for a bank loan, it is usually the best option.

In addition to the bank’s own internal loan programs they also act as agents for the many excellent programs through state agencies such as Alaska Housing Finance Corporation and Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority.

loan-applicationWE CAN HELP! If you already have an established banking relationship and are familiar with financing of commercial property you can save money by directly contacting one of the loan officers of your bank. However, if you need help in the process, we can represent you in getting the loan you desire. Although we work for you rather than the bank, we do reduce the work that the bank has to do and are therefore often able to get them to reduce their fees, but our fee will usually increase your cost by 1/2% to 1% of the loan amount. In addition to local banks we also have access to numerous national financing sources that may sometimes provide a better loan program.
