The Typical Deal
After you determine the total project cost, a private lender finances 50% of the cost and takes a first mortgage position on the assets being financed.
Tri State CDC, through the SBA 504, finances 40% of the project cost up to a cap of $1,500,000 ($2,000,000 if certain requirements are met) and the CDC takes a second mortgage position. You, the small business in California, infuse only 10% of project costs.
