# Finance Lobby

> A commercial real estate (CRE) financing marketplace. Brokers and borrowers publish a
> deal once; verified lenders set their criteria once and receive the deals that match,
> then quote directly. Quotes, messages, documents, and comparisons live in one place
> instead of across a hundred forwarded emails.

Finance Lobby serves three roles: **brokers** and **borrowers** on the capital-seeking
side, and **lenders** on the capital-providing side. It is a marketplace and a workspace,
not a broker: Finance Lobby does not originate, underwrite, or fund loans, does not take a
commission on deals closed through the platform, and does not charge lenders to
participate.

## What Finance Lobby is for

- Publishing a CRE deal once and having it reach lenders whose stated criteria it fits,
  rather than cold-calling contacts one at a time.
- Receiving and comparing real lender quotes side by side — rate, term, amortization,
  leverage, recourse, fees — on a single screen.
- Underwriting a deal and producing a deal memorandum, with sales and rent comparables.
- Lenders setting their box (asset types, geographies, loan sizes, programs) once and
  receiving matched deal flow instead of sourcing it.

## Key facts

- Lender network: 10,500+ verified lenders; trusted by over 80% of US FDIC banks.
- Property types financed: multifamily, office, retail, industrial, hospitality, and
  other income-producing commercial property.
- Loan types: permanent, bridge, construction, agency multifamily, SBA, and CMBS.
- Finance Lobby takes no cut of any deal that closes on the platform.
- Lenders are never charged to join or to receive matched deals.

- [Commercial Mortgage Calculator](https://financelobby.com/tools/mortgage-calculator):
  monthly payment, DSCR, balloon payoff, total interest, and a full amortization schedule
  for a CRE loan. Inputs: purchase price, loan amount, interest rate, interest-only
  period, maturity, amortization, and first-year NOI.

  Federal Reserve's published series and refresh daily; swap rates are indicative.

## How CRE loan pricing works

Most commercial loans price as a **benchmark plus a spread**. The benchmark is the
lender's cost of capital — usually a Treasury yield for fixed-rate debt or a SOFR swap
for floating. The spread is what the lender charges for risk and profit, commonly 140–450
basis points. Both matter: the benchmark moves with the market and the spread is what
sponsor strength, leverage, asset type, and market depth actually change.

Key ratios lenders size to:

- **DSCR** (debt service coverage ratio) = net operating income ÷ annual debt service.
  Typically 1.20x–1.25x for permanent debt; below 1.20x is usually a decline.
- **LTV** (loan to value): commonly 60–75% for stabilized assets, up to 75–80% for agency
  multifamily.
- **LTC** (loan to cost): commonly 65–75% for bridge and construction debt.

Most commercial mortgages **balloon** — they mature well before they fully amortize (for
example a 10-year term on a 30-year amortization schedule), leaving a lump sum due at
maturity that is refinanced, paid down, or resolved by sale.
