SOLUTIONS FROM US

BENEFITS OF COMMERCIAL PROPERTY OWNERSHIP

Financing is often the critical component in a real estate 
transaction. U.S. Bank SBA Division can finance your next deal 
with an SBA loan specially tailored for owner-users that puts 
your small business client into their own business property. 

With historically low interest rates and a large supply of 
buildings at lower prices, now is a great time for small
businesses to consider owning commercial real estate. Some 
of the numerous advantages of owning over leasing includes:

- No rent increases
- Tax benefits of property ownership
- Potential property appreciation
- 25-year amortization with an SBA loan usually means lower 
  monthly payments
- Purchasing a larger facility than is immediately needed 
  allows for future growth
- Relocating may be used to add visibility and greater 
  convenience for customers

There has never been a better time to consider owning commercial 
real estate. Explaining the numerous advantages of owning over 
leasing is one of our special skills at SBA Division and we are 
always looking for the opportunity to share this important 
information with our banking partners.

Call me today to see how I can help your small business client!
