Business Real Estate Loan

One of our specialties is providing business mortgage loans to assist self-employed small business owners acquire, refinance, or expand their business properties.  While many banks and other lending institutions have stopped lending to small business owners, we are aggressively arranging loans at very attractive rates.  Business real estate loans or owner occupied real estate loans for owner-user properties require a specialized commercial real estate lender.  At Select Commercial, we offer both conventional and SBA owner occupied commercial mortgage loans.

In addition to analyzing the business real estate loan, the lender must have a thorough understanding of small business lending to self-employed borrowers.  At Select Commercial, we are proud of our record of lending to self-employed borrowers.  Quite often, self-employed real estate owners need underwriting flexibility with regard to their income and credit.  Many times, a “Stated-Income” loan is necessary.  Other times, a past credit issue or tax lien has caused a bank to reject the loan.  At Select Commercial, we look at the entire story and are willing to overlook these issues if the loan makes good, common sense.

Business Real Estate Loans 2024

As we progress through 2024, the commercial real estate loan market continues to evolve, with a particular emphasis on owner-occupied properties. These loans are proving to be the most resilient and sought-after segment in the business real estate loan sector. The Federal Reserve has maintained stable interest rates, fostering a more predictable lending environment. This stability has helped align seller asking prices and buyer offers, facilitating smoother transactions. Despite economic challenges, lenders are offering competitive terms for well-performing properties, especially those that can adjust rents to meet rising debt service costs.

Many loans maturing in 2024 will face refinancing challenges, potentially requiring property owners to inject more equity to maintain cash flow. The office and retail sectors remain vulnerable, with many properties being repurposed for other uses. However, properties that can adapt to market demands, such as those in the medical field, are better positioned. The commercial real estate industry must navigate higher rates and economic uncertainties, but a cautious approach by the Fed aims to mitigate severe disruptions. We will continue to monitor the market closely and adapt our strategies to support our clients.

Owner-Occupied Real Estate Loans 2024

Owner-occupied properties remain the strongest segment in the business real estate loan sector. These loans are crucial for business owners looking to purchase or renovate properties such as stores, offices, or warehouses for their own use. Here are the key advantages of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans:

Build Equity

Purchasing your commercial property allows your monthly payments to build your own equity instead of your landlord’s. This equity, which is the difference between your property's value and the amount owed, becomes a valuable asset for your business, creating a more stable financial future.


Lower Interest Rates

Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans generally come with lower interest rates compared to other types of commercial property loans. Lenders view these loans as less risky because business owners are more invested in maintaining their property and ensuring timely payments, assuming they have a good business credit score and history.


More Control Over the Property

Owning your property gives you greater control, allowing you to customize the space to better meet your business needs. You can make improvements, adjust branding, and modify the property without needing approval from a landlord.


An owner-occupied commercial real estate loan provides numerous benefits to business owners. For more information about commercial loans, please contact us today.
