Hotel Loan and Hotel Lenders
We are still closing hotel loans if the loan amount is below $2,000,000.
Hotel loans are one of the more complicated arenas in the commercial mortgage industry. Loan programs, guidelines, and pricing vary widely among lenders depending on many factors; such as if the property is flagged or unflagged, loan size, age of subject property, town population, interior corridor, historical financial performance, STAR ratings, etc. Hotel lenders appetite for this industry fluctuates widely as well, as the industries come in and out of favor more than with typical building types.
Hotel Loans Conventional
We have access to some of the best programs in the market. Loan to values on conventional programs can still go as high as 70% on rate and term refinances and up to 65% on cash out refinances.
- Loan to Value is up to 70% of appraised value
- Cash-out up to 65% of appraisal value
- Fixed periods from 3, 5, 7, 10 and 25 years.
- Loan amounts from $400,000 - $10,000,000
Hotel Loans via SBA 504 and SBA 7a
The 504 and 7A loan programs, which are guaranteed through the Small Business Administration (SBA) provides some of the best finance options for borrowers seeking acquisition financing. The primary benefit of the 504 program is twofold, high leverage (85% LTV), long term, fixed rate financing. The 7a program is geared towards smaller loans but still provides high leverage purchase financing.
