Generally subject to extensive underwriting and due diligence prior to closing, commercial mortgages are much more intensively researched upon as compared to its residential counterpart.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Generally Speaking<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The lender&#8217;s underwriting process normally includes a detailed financial review of the property and the property owner, as well as various other third-party reports, such as an appraisal.<\/p>\n<p>Some commercial mortgages are slated as nonrecourse. This means that if the borrower fails to pay the mortgage, a lender can only claim the commercial property as repayment, and cannot seize anything else from the borrower. Typically speaking the repayment structures for commercial mortgages has two basic components:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The amortization of the loan, which, as with a residential loan, is the loan term of the mortgage. This is what\u2019s used to calculate the monthly payment<\/li>\n<li>The balloon payment, after which time the borrower has to either pay the remaining balance in full, refinance, or sell the property.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Commercial mortgages do offer some important advantages over rental of property or land.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Advantages of Commercial Mortgages:<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The borrower gets to keep ownership of the business and premises. Other investment options usually involve \u00a0giving up some part of the business ownership<\/li>\n<li>Substantial capital gains can be accrued &#8211; This can be a great way of realising capital growth over a long period<\/li>\n<li>Commercial mortgages are normally not subject to rental fluctuations of residential properties allowing for a much stable business planning and strategizing environment.<\/li>\n<li>With lower interest rates than other unsecured loans\/overdrafts, commercial mortgages offer lower monthly costs. Also, they can be fixed which can help in managing finances more accurately.<\/li>\n<li>Commercial mortgage interest payments are tax deductible. This can contribute to reduced annual tax overheads for businesses.<\/li>\n<li>Commercial mortgage payment plans normally extend for a number of years letting a business focus on profit and loss and cash flow matters. Also, providing the lender agrees, borrowers have the options of sub-letting some of the business premises, allowing for further revenue generation opportunities down the line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Some Pitfalls to Consider<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Whereas the benefits of going for a commercial mortgage are definitely worthwhile, there are always potential pitfalls that need to be understood:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The upfront deposit needed for such a mortgage is usually extremely high. This represents money which could be used in other business operations<\/li>\n<li>If the premises is owned (As is normally the case with commercial mortgages), it can be harder to move the business. With property rentals, users can often negotiate ending the rent agreement or finding another business to take up the tenancy.<\/li>\n<li>In case of variable rate mortgage, borrowers can leave themselves vulnerable to interest rate increases<\/li>\n<li>The owner is completely responsible for maintenance, insurance and security of the property at all times!<\/li>\n<li>If the property loses value, the business\/owner is hit directly with a reduction in the overall capital.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Commercial mortgages are a phenomenon that are widely used throughout the world, and whereas there are benefits and drawbacks, if settled properly and with due diligence, they can be of great assistance and benefit overall!<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">About the Author: Dominic Lambrinos<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Dominic Lambrinos is a financial expert who provides professional business finance solutions, commercial financial engineering, expert review of financial submissions, negotiation, equity raising, business sales, and trade financing.
