Purchasing Real Estate using the SBA 504 Loan
This message will deal with how commercial Real Estate can be financed through the SBA Programs. The SBA has a loan program called the 504 program, which is specifically used for the financing of Real Estate oriented transactions, which can be a part of a business opportunity or not.
The benefit to financing a Real Estate Oriented transaction through the SBA is that a business as a start up can buy real estate as part of the initial operation of the business, or an ongoing business can be sold with the real estate as well. The SBA has a very aggressive program when Real Estate is involved.
An SBA loan can be up to $4.0 million for Owner Occupied Commercial Real Estate Transactions.
Borrower Benefits
Low down payment of only 10%
Long Repayment Terms - reducing monthly payments
Can be long term fixed rate unlike traditional 7A loans
Use of Proceeds
Purchase, construction or renovation of owner-occupied commercial real estate
Standard Loan Structure
50% First Mortgage up to 3 million, 25 years fully amortized
40% SBA 504 second mortgage, 20 years fully amortized
10% down payment by borrower.
The above is commonly known as a 50/40/10.
