Commercial Mortgage Bankers...

Before you start emailing your application package around the Net, it would probably be a good idea to do a reality check and see if you are ready for a loan submission.  Hereinbelow is a quick checklist of items that are commonly required (you may wish to bookmark this page for future reference):

Site Control.  You MUST have an executed purchase agreement, option agreement, letter of intent or already have fee-simple ownership of the project site to qualify for underwriting consideration.

Environmental Phase I.  Dated within the last six months, please.

Market Feasibility Study.  Also dated within the last six months.

Pro Forma Financial Presentation.  Created based upon the findings of the market feasibility study.

Capital Funding Plan Proposal.  This is your "executive summary" of the transaction.  No more than 30 pages, but incorporates all the key items.

Site Plan.  You need the approved development plat.  Lenders will not lend money for zoning battles.

Business Plan of Department Operations.

Executed Property Management Contract.  

Executed Construction Contract.

Executed Development Management Agreement.

Schematic Phase Outline Construction Specifications.

Specimen Title Insurance Report.

Evidence of Zoning & Construction Permits.

Borrower Financial Statements (last three (3) years is the standard).

Borrower Tax Returns (last three (3) years).

Utility Capacity/Will-Serve Letters - from each utility provider.

All of these exhibits need to be in electronic format for ease of access and transmission.  The most common way these documents are warehoused is to place them in a secure directory on your corporate web server.  If you have questions regarding your application then it is time to call Rainmaker Marketing Corporation.

Finally, have you considered the syndication alternative?  The sale of fractional real estate ownership interests in an income-producing property (or property development program) may provide you with the gap financing necessary to allow your project to close on its construction financing.  Syndications may start as early as the pre-construction phase and are for all projects having development budgets (or acquisition costs) of at least $2.5 million.  The realestateplays.com syndication platform also offers a level of secondary market liquidity that approaches parity with the public stock exchanges.  Now investors have the opportunity to own the same quality assets as were reserved for the lords of Wall Street.  Make your play.

Do You Know The Secret?

When it comes to commercial real estate development finance, it doesn't matter whether you need to raise $5 million or $50 million, the out-of-pocket costs, advance fees and project due diligence costs will always require the same relative investment dollars the promoters have to fund.  Do you know what that amount is?  Do you know the Secret?
