About Our ST Retail Real Estate Financing Loan Programs
Retail properties are one niche of commercial financing where we, as private lenders, go head to head with the banks. And typically, on the numbers alone, for boring long-term Buy & Hold on performing assets, banks will beat us!
But not every retail property acquisition or refinance will even be considered (much less funded) by banks, which is why Private Retail Property Hard Money Loans are a growing commodity among savvy & qualified investors.
In the right location, leased to the right audience, under proper management, retail properties can be one of the most stable & consistent asset classes on the board. Retail properties, whether strip center or mall, anchored or not, purpose built or customized for each tenant, are one of the most desirable types of real estate across the globe. Due to their generally higher acquisition cost, finding the best retail property financing is an especially important component of any commercial real estate investor’s business strategy.
STATENAME Retail Property Commercial Real Estate Loans
Retail real estate loans are a highly specialized real estate financing option. Similar to most types ofcommercial real estate loans we offer, Retail Property Private Hard Money Loans have several distinct Pros and Cons.
This type of niche financing is largely shaped by the fact that both traditional banks’ commercial lending branches and private lenders compete over the same deals. This means better rates for you, the qualified Borrower, but it also means added chaos & confusion in the loan shopping process.
If you’re investing in retail properties, you should always be exploring as many financing options as possible, since a few Points here, or a botched deal there add up when your average transaction size is >$1m.
Pros of ST Retail Property Loans:
- Can close on deals where the banks said “No.”
- Provide more flexible terms than bank financing.
- Best when you need to get the deal closed… fast!

Cons of ST Retail Property Loans:

- Still will require a qualified Borrower with a high down payment (65% – 80% max LTV).
- Options vary significantly state-to-state, town-to-town, and even neighborhood-to-neighborhood.
Ultimately, if you’re looking at a new acquisition or major refinance on an office building, you need to shop around!
