What Are Commercial Construction Loans?

The cost of building onto an existing structure or creating a new commercial building can be steep. Choosing a commercial construction loan enables you to get the funds you need to grow your business as you continue to add employees and equipment for your operations. Pay for the construction materials, contractors and land you require for success without financial strain.

How Do Commercial Construction Loans Work?

Construction business loans provide you with funds spread throughout the course of a building project. Instead of receiving funds in one lump sum, we'll advance funds as you reach milestones in your construction draw schedule. For example, you might get a partial loan amount when it's time to excavate land for your new building and then receive another payout for the cost of materials at a later time.

A Simple Application Process

We offer commercial construction loans to customers based in western and central Pennsylvania and Ohio. Together, you and one of our bankers will go over the steps to complete a commercial construction loan application. We'll review the finances and credit score of the individual taking out the loan. The financial standing of your company will also come into play when deciding the terms and interest rate for the commercial construction loan upon approval.

Some of the financial documents we'll ask for during the application process include tax returns, income statements, balance sheets and a current list of debts.
