What is a Commercial Construction Loan?
A commercial construction loan allows you to borrow money to construct your new business or expand your existing business. In some cases, the cost of construction can be covered in a commercial real estate loan if you are purchasing vacant land. If you already own the land, but need to build the physical structure, that’s where a commercial construction loan can help.
Business construction loans can also help if you increase the size or reconfigure your commercial property.
Commercial Construction Loans vs. Commercial Mortgages
Though commercial construction loans and commercial mortgage loans may both fall under the business real estate lending umbrella, the major differences are what the loan is used to finance, and how the loan is repaid.
Business construction loans are used to finance the materials and process of constructing the building. A business mortgage loan lets the buyer secure the funds to purchase an existing, commercially developed structure.
Commercial mortgages, similar to personal mortgages, have a long-term repayment schedule and the borrower borrows the whole amount upfront. The full amount of a commercial construction loan is not received up front. Instead, the borrower works with the commercial lender to create a withdraw schedule, and the funds are released as needed during the course of the project.
