Is the loan intended for businesses that are willing to get a loan to buy, refinance or build commercial real estate?

Correct. Real Estate loans can be used to buy a new property, to refinance a current property or to construct a new property.

 

Construction Loans

Benefits Include:
  • Loans have a one time closing
  • Draws must be made over 12 months
  • Competitive low rates
  • Owner occupied means the business must consume 51% or more of the square footage. Note: Non-Owner Occupied Commercial Real Estate Loans available on certain property types at less than 60% LTV, contact a BBVA Business Relationship Manager for details.
 

How is this different from Construction loans?

Construction loans are used for the sole purpose of constructing a new property. Typically there is a 12-month draw period that allows the customer to make interest payments only during the construction phase as they draw down on the loan. Once the construction is complete, the loan automatically converts to a permanent fixed term loan with principal & interest payments due that are amortized over the remaining term of the loan.

Commercial Real Estate Line of Credit

Best for businesses who don’t need to refinance but need access to cash for shorter term capital.

Benefits Include:
  • Variable Rate tied to BBVA USAs Prime
  • 80% Loan to Value (LTV) Maximum
  • 84 month renewals (7 years)
  • Must be owner occupied
