Frequently Asked Questions

How are commercial mortgage payments calculated?

Commercial mortgage payments depend on the loan amount, interest rate, term, and whether it's amortizing or interest-only. Amortizing loans have higher monthly payments but build equity over time, while interest-only loans have lower payments but require a balloon payment at maturity.

What's the difference between loan term and amortization period?

The loan term is how long before the loan matures (often 5-10 years for commercial), while the amortization period determines how payments are calculated (typically 25-30 years). This creates a balloon payment at the end of the term.

What down payment is required for a commercial mortgage?

Commercial mortgages typically require 20-35% down payment, depending on the property type, loan program, and borrower qualifications. SBA loans may allow as little as 10% down for owner-occupied properties.

Are commercial mortgage rates higher than residential?

Yes, commercial mortgage rates are typically 0.5-2% higher than residential rates due to increased risk and complexity. Rates vary by property type, loan amount, term, and borrower qualifications.
