Permanent/Fixed Rate Financing is the core product that is utilized most throughout the commercial real estate industry. The Borrowers can lock an existing loan from anywhere from 2 years to 30 years based on the property type. Sperry Van Ness/Better Capital Partners relationships with its lenders are a key component in assisting its client's permanent financing needs.
Floating-rate financing usually utilizes the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). This product is very attractive to Borrowers who have a lot of upside in an existing property and need a short period of time to stabilize an existing property. These rates have been at the historical lows and have been very popular as they usually have minimal or no prepayment penalties. Sperry Van Ness/Better Capital Partners assists borrowers to utilize these flexible structures for their short term needs.
