Application Process
The commercial mortgage application process involves several key steps, starting with identifying a suitable lender and loan product, followed by submitting a comprehensive application package, obtaining a letter of intent, undergoing underwriting, and finally, closing the loan. Lenders will assess the financial health of the applicant, the business stability, and the value of the property.
The process consists of the following:
​​
(1) Qualified borrowers will understand the criteria required to move forward with an application (see Loan Criteria)
​​​
(2) Prepare and submit a detailed loan application package, including financial statements, tax returns, business plan, and other required documents.
​​​
(3) Letter of intent (LOI): Obtain and sign a letter of intent from the lender, outlining the loan terms and conditions.
(4) Underwriting: The lender's underwriter will review your application and all supporting documents, assessing your creditworthiness and the viability of the project.
