Having a place to have your business run out off
should be the goal for every small business owner. Once you wade through all
the searching and debating and you find where you want to move your business,
what’s next? At this point you now have two options, either rent a space or go
head and make a down payment on it. This is where commercial lenders come into
the picture. Many small business owners will often choose to take out a
mortgage on the space. However, there are a couple of problems you may run into

Having a commercial mortgage means more than just owning a property
For many small business owners, money can be very
tight the during the first stages of their business. Commercial mortgage lenders only loan out a partial amount of the
property you are purchasing. The other portion, of course, comes from you.
Usually, this is amount one-fifth of the cost of the property. This may not
sound that bad, but you also have to factor in your regular business costs.
Things like, supplies or advertisement this also becomes an issue if you have
more than one employee. Adversely, if you rent the property you want you
usually just have to make a deposit of one month’s rent for the property.

Along with the regular costs, you already have as a
business owner you could potentially take on new ones. For example, you are the
owner of a property that serves as a boutique for clothes. On a cold day, the
pipes freeze and burst flooding your entire showroom floor ruining a large
portion of clothes. You now are faced with a myriad of issues. You have to call
a plumber to fix it of course. The clothes you had are now cannot be sold, and
now you have to close you store to make repairs. Now you are stuck with all the
bills and you may lose customers for a period of time.

Having a commercial mortgage on a property more of a commitment
Say the only place you could find that was affordable
was in an area not conducive to your business. If you were to choose a commercial mortgage over renting you
are basically locked into that property. Yes, you could always sell it, but
with that, it consumes a lot of your time trying to find a potential buyer.
Also depending on the market you are in it could take months before the deal is
finalized. You also have to inform your mortgage lender of your plans
throughout the process as well.
