Commercial Mortgage Loans in Texas

Commercial Loans of Texas specializes in Texas commercial mortgage financing — long-term, fixed-rate loans secured by income-producing commercial real estate. We also offer stated income, asset-based, and hard money private lending options starting at competitive rates for borrowers who don’t fit conventional bank underwriting.

What Is a Commercial Mortgage?

A commercial mortgage is a long-term loan — typically 15 to 30 years — secured by commercial rather than residential real estate. Unlike a bridge or construction loan, a commercial mortgage is built for the hold period: fixed or semi-fixed rates, full amortization, and predictable monthly payments for an owner-operated business or a stabilized investment property generating steady rental income.

Commercial Mortgage vs. Commercial Loan

The terms get used interchangeably, but a “commercial mortgage” specifically refers to the long-term, amortizing financing behind a property purchase or refinance — as opposed to shorter-term bridge, construction, or working-capital commercial loans, which are structured for a specific transitional purpose rather than a full ownership hold period.

Who Uses a Commercial Mortgage

Terms We Offer

Fixed-rate terms up to 30 years, loan-to-value ratios based on property type and cash flow, and stated-income underwriting for borrowers who prefer not to document personal tax returns. Rates and terms depend on property type, location, occupancy, and the strength of the underlying cash flow.

Commercial Mortgage Markets We Serve

We are a direct lender across the country. These are markets we actively fund in — commercial mortgage, stated income, construction and bridge financing, with no upfront fees and closings in 7 to 21 days.

How to Apply for a Commercial Loan

You do not need a full application package to get a real answer. We price the deal from five facts, tell you yes or no, and only then ask for documents. We are a direct lender — the person reading your file is the person who can approve it.

What we need to price your loan

  1. Property type and address. Retail, office, industrial, multifamily, mixed-use, land or special purpose. The address tells us the market; the type tells us the leverage.
  2. Purchase price or current value. If you are buying, the contract price. If you are refinancing, your best estimate of value — we order the appraisal, you do not need one first.
  3. Loan amount requested. Our minimum is $200,000. There is no practical maximum for a well-secured commercial property.
  4. How the loan gets repaid. Rent roll, business income, a sale, or a refinance into long-term debt.
  5. Your timeline. A 45-day contract and a "sometime this year" refinance are different loans, and we structure them differently.

What happens after you apply

A real person reads the file the same business day it arrives. If the deal works, you get terms — rate, leverage, term, fees — in writing. If it does not work, you hear that immediately and you hear why, which is usually more useful than a slow maybe.

We charge no upfront fees. There is no application fee, no processing fee, and nothing to pay before you have terms in hand. Third-party costs — appraisal, title, survey — are paid to the third parties who perform them, at closing or when ordered.

Applying from outside Texas

We are a direct commercial lender in 43 states, so an application from Omaha, Minneapolis, Augusta or Boise goes through the same process as one from Dallas. Conventional, stated-income and 30-year fixed commercial programs travel. Hard money and bridge lending is currently Texas-only; if your deal is a short-term rehab or bridge outside Texas, tell us and we will say so up front rather than waste your week.

Which application should you use?

Most people should not start with a long application at all. Start with the five facts above — by form, or by phone on 877-895-3634. If you would rather work on paper, the one-page Executive Loan Summary is the shortest complete document we accept, and the full program applications are there when you are ready for underwriting.

Apply in under a minute

Five fields. A real answer, usually the same day.

How to Choose the Best Commercial Lender for Your Deal

There is no single best commercial lender — there is a best lender for a specific property, timeline and borrower profile. The five types below are what you are really choosing between, and the honest answer is that four of them beat us in at least one situation.

Lender type Wins when Pricing Speed The catch
Bank or credit union Owner-occupied property, strong tax returns, no deadline Lowest available 45–90 days Full documentation, global cash-flow review and a committee. One weak tax year can end the file after six weeks of work.
SBA lender (7(a) / 504) Owner-occupied purchase with low down payment Low, government-guaranteed 60–120 days Occupancy rules, personal guarantees and the longest timeline of any option. Investment property does not qualify.
Agency / CMBS (conduit) Stabilised multifamily and large commercial, $5M and up Low, long fixed terms 60–90 days Rigid boxes, defeasance or yield-maintenance prepay, and heavy legal cost. Below roughly $2M the fees stop making sense.
Direct private / stated-income lender Investment property, self-employed borrowers, unusual assets Higher than a bank, lower than hard money 7–21 days You pay for speed and flexibility. Worth it when a deadline or a documentation gap would kill a bank loan, not otherwise.
Hard money / bridge Rehab, repositioning, a short fuse, a broken deal Highest 5–14 days Short term and interest-only. This is a bridge to somewhere, so never take it without knowing the exit that repays it.

Speed figures are from application to funding on a complete file. Pricing is relative, not a quote — see our current rate sheet for real numbers.

Five questions that tell you more than any "best lender" list

Where we are the right call — and where we are not

We are the right call when the property is an investment, the borrower is self-employed or holds title in an entity, the documentation is imperfect, or the clock matters. Stated-income, 30-year fixed commercial, bridge and construction, $200,000 and up, closings in 7 to 21 days, direct since 1998 and lending across 43 states.

We are not the right call if you occupy the building yourself, your tax returns are clean, and you have ninety days to spare. Take the bank or the SBA loan — the rate difference over a ten-year hold is real money, and we will tell you that on the phone rather than after you have paid for an appraisal.

Want to know which of the five you actually need? Describe the deal in five fields and we will tell you straight, including when the answer is someone else. Call 877-895-3634 or send the one-page summary.

What Our Borrowers Say

Real Google reviews, word for word, from people we have closed loans for. 4.8 out of 5 from 38 Google reviews.

★★★★★
“Let me just start by saying that the only reason I give him five stars is because there is no higher. Daniel Peterson is one of the most honest and transparent person I have ever dealt with. Getting me a refinance was not going be easy but right from the start he gave it his all. Just as we would hit bumps he would not give up. He would look for other ways and would always stay motivated to make it happen. Just as I thought that it wasn’t going to get done. He would pull out the rabbit from the hat, as the old saying goes, all the way to the end. If you are ever in need of a refinance or to purchase another home or anything in this field trust me you will not be disappointed with him. I truly say if he can’t do it it’s probably because it cannot be done but if he does he will find a way.”
