We support loan sizes in the range of $1MM–$30MM.

Final proceeds depend on asset quality, market strength, tenant/NOI durability, and sponsor profile.
Conventional and Bridge loans are typically floating and priced off market benchmarks like CMT or SOFR. For projects eligible for SBA 504 loans, the SBA debenture portion has fixed interest rate, while the 1st-lien is floating. Final pricing reflects market rates, risk, and structure.
