1. Making SBA/CRE loans simple

This is an introduction to SBA/CRE lending  that explains the many types of loans and how to structure one to best fit the need of each borrower. Each borrower will have a unique loan situation: from the type of property, to how it is vested, to whether it is an owner-user or an income property. The goal is to empower brokers to quickly recognize a commercial loan opportunity so they can confidently place the loans with DealFlo Certified Lenders™.

 

Topics include:

  • SBA 7a & 504

  • CRE

  • Owner User

  • Income Property

  • CDC Debenture

  • Bridge Loan

  • Construction Loan

  • Tenant Improvement

  • Title Vesting

  • ...plus more

2. Getting  your foot in the door

Now that brokers understand that SBA/CRE is simple, we next help them find CRE/SBA loans in their market.  This starts with customizing each private coaching session to help brokers:

​

  • Develop and execute a marketing strategy

  • Build a referral network

  • Create a Pre and Post loan sales calling plan

  • Become a “Relationship” LO instead of a “Transaction” LO

​

​​Getting your foot in the door is an artistic skillset — it is a skillset we at DealFlo are willing to share with those motivated to expand their mortgage business by becoming a DealFlo Commercial Loan Broker™.

  • DSCR

  • LTV

  • Environmental report

  • ...plus more
