Questions

Commercial

Do you lend on partly vacant buildings?

Yes. We review the leases in place, your plan to lease the vacant space and how long it is likely to take.

Will I need an environmental report?

Depending on the property's history and use, we may require an environmental site assessment. We tell you early if one applies.

Do you lend outside South Florida?

Yes, throughout Florida, with most of our loans in Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and the Florida Keys.

Who signs the loan?

The company that owns the property borrows, and owners with 10% or more personally guarantee the loan.
