What is it
Commercial real estate financing falls into three lanes at Inflection Financing: SBA 7(a) for smaller owner-occupied transactions, SBA 504 for larger owner-occupied real estate with low down payment, and conventional CRE for investment property or non-SBA-eligible transactions. We originate all three in-house.

An SBA 504 loan typically funds 50% via Inflection Financing (the first mortgage), 40% via a Certified Development Company (the second), and 10% from the borrower — giving owner-occupants 90% financing on a 25-year fixed-rate basis. Conventional CRE pricing ranges from 6.75% to 9.5% depending on asset class, LTV, and DSCR, with terms typically structured as 10-year notes on a 25-year amortization schedule.

Commercial Real Estate — Frequently Asked

What's the difference between SBA 7(a) and SBA 504 for real estate?+

Both can fund owner-occupied real estate. SBA 504 is purpose-built for it: lower down payment (10%), longer fixed-rate period (25 years), and structured across two mortgages. 7(a) is more flexible — it can also fund working capital, equipment, or business acquisition alongside the real estate — but typically requires more equity.

Can I finance investment property with an SBA loan?+

No. SBA loans require owner-occupancy (the business must occupy at least 51% of the building for purchase, 60% for new construction). Investment property must be financed conventionally — which Inflection Financing also offers.

Do you offer construction-to-permanent financing?+

Yes. We close construction-to-permanent CRE loans in a single transaction, which avoids the rate and approval risk of a second close once the building stabilizes.
