Commercial Hard Money Loan
Hard money loans are available to investors that are FICO challenged. If you have a Loan-To-Value (LTV) in your commercial property of 50-60% equity and low FICO scores you are a prime candidate for obtaining a hard money loan. These loans are generally one to three year terms and in some cases up to 20 years with interest rates in the neighborhood of 9-12% and 3-5 points.
Qualifying for a hard money loan is not as difficult as you may think. Co-signers are not always required to be on title, no seasoning of credit trade lines are necessarily required, cross-collaterlization is permitted, foreign nationals are okay and if you are unable to fully document your personal income is not a deal killer. However, if your investment is an owner occupied structure you must be able to show the ability to repay the loan.
