Commercial Mortgage Overview
Applicants are expected to have an experienced business acumen.
Contirbution towards the commercial mortgage is normally around 30%. The period of repayment is normally up to 15 years, provided that repayment is capable of being achieved prior to the expiry of existing leases.
As a general rule, gross rental income from properties charged to the Bank should cover the loan repayment by 130%. The margin will generally be sufficient to allow for voids and other overhead costs, eg. insurance, repairs and renewals.
