Commercial Loan Default - #264 In this episode, we break down a five-year saga involving a major commercial loan default — a rollercoaster story filled with challenges, lessons, and (finally) a successful exit. Back in March 2020, a borrower with a massive portfolio of commercial real estate reached out to us for liquidity. What followed was a series of 10 loans backed by 15 properties, a mix of strong assets and serious organizational chaos. From high cash flow and minimal leverage to bounced ACHs and missed payments, this story has it all. We'll walk you through: How we sourced this deal and why it looked “too good to be true” at first Why underwriting at a low LTV saved the day The challenges of working with a disorganized next-gen ownership group How default and foreclosure almost happened (but didn't) The ultimate refi and payoffs that wrapped it all up — five years later Whether you're a lender, investor, or just love real estate war stories, this episode gives an inside look at how commercial loan deals can go sideways — and still end well.

What are the terms for an SBA construction loan? Can you refinance from a conventional loan into an SBA loan? Is there an 100% financing option with SBA? How many SBA loans can you take? Anne Mino, Senior Loan Officer at LiveOak Bank, shares her knowledge.Read the entire episode here: For construction, these loans are even more attractive. We offer a 26-year term, three years of interest only. The idea there is that you'll get 12 months for your construction process, we can extend it if it's a larger project, but then two more years of interest only for your lease-up period. And then, we capitalize everything the project needs until it can pay its bills. In other words, we are going to give you an interest reserve account that will make your debt payments during construction when there's no income. We'll also figure out what the operating deficit is during the lease-up period, and we can include that in the loan. It's a very all-encompassing loan. A lot of times, when we talk about what people can qualify for, they don't realize that it's as easy to qualify for a construction loan as it is for an acquisition loan. I'm not saying it's easier to do a construction project, but you can qualify just as easily. It just comes down to, "Do you have that 10%?" because we're going to give the project everything else it needs to get to stabilization.Can we refinance from a conventional into an SBA loan?Yes, the rule is we have to be able to reduce your monthly payment by 10%. And if there's a demand language in the original note and if it's on an unreasonable term, then it's also refinanceable. Let's say you got a hard money loan and it was a 10-year note. It did have a low rate, and I may not be able to improve your rate, but as long as the term of that loan wasn't appropriate for real estate, which SBA would say it wasn't, if it was 10 years versus 20 or 25 years, then that is refinanceable.You also have a 100% financing option. Can you elaborate on that?Yes, this is the people's favorite thing to hear. Once you own a facility, and you've owned it for 12 months, you can expand either via construction or acquisition with no more money down. The rules are, first of all, you have to have owned it for 12 months, at least. If you're obtaining a 504 loan, they want you to own it for 24 months. But let's just stick with the 7a world rate now. After 12 months, as long as the ownership is going to match identically, and it's the same LLC.Technically, if you're doing an acquisition, let's say, you're buying the facility down the street, you can roll it into its own LLC. The ownership of the two LLCs now needs to be identical, and they need to roll up to a parent company so that it essentially is one company that owns two LLCs, identical ownership, and the ownership can't have changed. If you came to me and six months ago you bought out your partner, I would tell you to wait 12 months, because it's going to be a 12-month look back. After all, that ownership needs to be the same. It needs to be reasonable that you're sharing branding, marketing resources, third-party management, all of those things, if it's an acquisition, and then SBA says that is technically an expansion. And then, of course, if you're adding on to an existing property, that's also an expansion. Again, after 12 months, we can do that expansion construction loan with no more money into the project. That's a great way to utilize the SBA. Take your project as far as it can go, and build a portfolio with the least amount of money.Anne Minoanne.mino@liveoak.bank
