Office Building Financing
Office Loans – Commercial Office Building Hard Money
Office Building Real Estate Investments are a cornerstone of the commercial markets. And since not every office building acquisition or refinance will even be considered (much less funded) by banks, Office Building Financing options by Hard Money Lenders are a growing commodity among savvy & qualified investors.
In the right location, leased to the right audience, under proper management, office buildings can be one of the most stable & consistent asset classes on the board. Office buildings, whether downtown or suburban, 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, office building financing is all the more an important component of any commercial real estate investor’s business strategy.

About Our Office Building Financing Loan Programs
Commercial office real estate loans are a highly specialized real estate financing option. Similar to most types of commercial real estate loans we offer, Office Building 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 office buildings, 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 Office Building Hard Money 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!
- Only option for Fix & Flips or Rehab & Rent scenarios.
Cons of Office Building Hard Money Loans:
- More expensive than bank loans (usually by 2% – 4% interest and/or 1 – 2 Points on the Origination Fee).
- 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!
