Private Mortgage CalculatorA commercial mortgage finances the purchase, refinance, or construction of income-producing real estate — retail, industrial, multi-family apartments, offices, and special-purpose assets.
Unlike residential mortgages which focus on your personal income and credit score, commercial mortgages are primarily evaluated on the property’s Net Operating Income (NOI), Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR), and Loan-to-Value ratio (LTV).
Estimate your NOI, property value, and debt service before you speak to anyone.

Commercial mortgage approvals are primarily driven by property income and value — not personal income alone. lendsimpl identifies lenders matched to your exact situation.
The property must generate positive cash flow after operating expenses. Lenders use NOI to calculate DSCR and determine loan eligibility.
Most institutional lenders require that property NOI covers debt service payments by at least 120%. Private lenders may accept lower DSCR.
Commercial properties typically require 25–35% equity. CMHC-insured multi-family (5+ units) can go as low as 15% down.
Required for most commercial properties to confirm no environmental contamination on the land. Some private lenders may waive this.
