Commercial Real Estate Loans: Building Your Future

Investing in commercial property is a significant step for many businesses, offering opportunities for expansion, revenue generation, or operational stability. Customers Bank provides commercial real estate loans that are structured to support your property acquisition, development, or refinancing needs. Our financing options cover a wide range of property types, including office buildings, retail centers, industrial facilities, and multi-family residential properties.

Our experienced real estate lending team works closely with you to understand your project specifics and financial goals, crafting loan terms that reflect market conditions and your business's unique situation. We are committed to helping you make sound real estate investments that contribute to your company's future success.

Asset-Based Lending: Maximizing Your Working Capital

For businesses seeking flexible and scalable financing tied directly to their operational assets, Customers Bank offers asset-based lending (ABL). This solution allows you to leverage your company's current assets, such as accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment, to secure a revolving line of credit. ABL provides immediate liquidity, making it an excellent choice for companies experiencing rapid growth, seasonal fluctuations, or those requiring capital for turnarounds and acquisitions.

Asset-based lending provides a direct link between your company's operational strength and its borrowing capacity, offering financial agility.

The primary advantage of asset-based lending is its ability to grow with your business. As your accounts receivable or inventory increase, so does your borrowing base, providing more available capital without the need for additional negotiations. This type of financing is particularly effective for manufacturers, distributors, and service providers who have substantial current assets on their balance sheets. It helps improve cash flow management and provides a reliable source of funds for operational expenses, payroll, and strategic investments.

SBA Loans: Government-Backed Support for Your Business

Customers Bank is a proud partner in offering Small Business Administration (SBA) loans, providing government-backed financing solutions designed to help small businesses access critical funding. SBA loans come with several advantages, including lower down payments, longer repayment terms, and competitive interest rates, making them an attractive option for many entrepreneurs. These loans can be used for a variety of purposes, from purchasing real estate and equipment to funding working capital and business acquisitions.

  1. SBA 7(a) Loans: The most common type, offering flexible financing for almost any business purpose, including working capital, equipment purchases, and real estate.
  2. SBA 504 Loans: Designed for major fixed asset purchases, such as real estate or machinery, providing long-term, fixed-rate financing.
  3. SBA Express Loans: A faster turnaround option for smaller loan amounts, ideal for businesses needing quick access to funds.

Our team of experienced SBA lending specialists guides you through the application process, ensuring you understand the requirements and benefits of each program. We work to match your business with the appropriate SBA loan, helping you secure the financing needed to achieve your goals and contribute to economic growth.
