Commercial Real Estate Loan Rates Guides
Commercial real estate loan rates reflect the complete risk and structure of a transaction. Property cash flow, leverage, sponsorship, term, amortization, recourse and lender type can materially change pricing for otherwise similar loan requests.
Use the complete economics—not one term—to compare financing.
Borrowers should compare total economics and certainty of execution rather than treating the interest rate as the only decision. A lower headline rate can be offset by restrictive proceeds, fees, reserves, prepayment terms or a closing process that does not fit the transaction.
For multi-million-dollar commercial real estate requests, a lender must have the capacity, property experience and credit process to deliver the proposed structure. Review proceeds, reserves, future funding, extension and prepayment mechanics alongside pricing.
- Define the transaction objective and non-negotiable closing date.
- Build a consistent property, sponsor and sources-and-uses package.
- Test the base case and downside case before accepting a term sheet.
- Confirm the lender’s approval authority and source of funds.

Commercial Real Estate Loans From $3M–$100M
Commercial real estate loans finance the acquisition, development, improvement or refinancing of income-producing and investment property. Large-balance borrowers need a structure that fits the property’s cash flow, the ownership plan and the timing of the transaction—not simply the lowest advertised rate.
