Financing Programs
Industrial real estate financing resources for Chicago buyers
CIRE provides clients with information on financing programs available for industrial real estate acquisitions in the Chicago market. Our team can connect you with lenders and financing specialists to help structure the right financing for your transaction.
SBA 504 Loans
The SBA 504 loan program provides long-term, fixed-rate financing for owner-occupied commercial real estate. Eligible businesses can finance up to 90% of the purchase price with below-market interest rates. This program is ideal for businesses purchasing their own industrial facility.
Conventional Commercial Mortgages
Traditional commercial mortgage financing is available through banks, credit unions, and commercial lenders. Terms typically range from 5 to 25 years with loan-to-value ratios of 65–80%. Rates and terms vary based on property type, borrower creditworthiness, and market conditions.
CMBS Financing
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS) loans offer competitive rates and flexible terms for larger industrial acquisitions. These non-recourse loans are well-suited for investment properties with strong in-place cash flow.
Bridge Loans
Short-term bridge financing is available for value-add acquisitions, lease-up situations, and time-sensitive transactions. Bridge loans provide flexibility when permanent financing is not immediately available.
CIRE does not provide financing directly. We connect clients with qualified lenders and financing professionals. Contact us for referrals.
