There are 2 major types of commercial loans. The 1st type is referred to as "recourse" where the property is collateralized and the borrowers personally guarantee the loan. The 2nd type is referred to as "non recourse" where the borrowers personal guarantee is not required.
Valuation
The appraisal of the property is the main source of valuation. Other bases for a quick evaluation are Gross Multiplier (GRM), Cap Rate, and Net Operating Income (NOI).
Income for commercial properties
The main income for any commercial property would be based on Gross Income minus allowances for vacancy and operating expenses. This is what is used to determine Net Operating Income (NOI). For better financing, the NOI should be sufficient enough to cover debt and generate cash flow before taxes.
Return on investment
To determine the returns on investment, following factors must be taken in to consideration.
- Annual income: This is the cash flow and principal reduction minus taxes and any capitalized cost.
- Short term: annual income plus projected annual increases in leases and adjusted operating expenses.
- Long term: all of above factors plus depreciation write-offs and estimated appreciation.
