Benefits of financing with VelocitySBA
The purchase or refinance of commercial real estate may be one of the biggest financial decisions you make as a business owner. That is why partnering with a financial institution that is experienced in commercial real estate and equipped to offer a solution that comprehensively meets your specific needs is paramount. VelocitySBA provides financing for a wide variety of different commercial property types and has lent to businesses nationwide to secure a permanent home for their business.

Below are just some of the many benefits we can provide.
Permanent Financing
- Fully amortized up to 25 years
- No balloon payment. Most conventional loans are NOT fully amortized, meaning they will mature in as soon as 5 years and require the borrower to refinance the balance remaining.
- Reducing potentially costly refinance expenses such as updated appraisal fees, origination fees, environmental fees, etc.
- Uncertainty of what appraised value may be when conventional loans require refinance
Low Down Payment
- As little as 10% versus 35% down with most conventional financing
- Greater retention of working capital – Less down payment, means business owners can hold onto more for operating and growing their business
Low Monthly Payment
- With competitive rates and longer amortization, your payments will be lower than many conventional options giving you more cashflow for your business
Access Capital (Refinance)
- Unlock the equity you have accrued in your existing commercial property by refinancing your property to purchase equipment, consolidate debt, or obtain working capital.
