This Partners commercial real estate mortgage is typically designed for buyers/owners of 5 or more family unit buildings. Our multi-family commercial lending professionals can help you analyze the rental income cash flow and the operating expenses so that you are positioned with adequate reserves after debt service. Owning and operating multi-family properties can be rewarding and challenging. Allow Partners to provide you with the financing expertise.

Partners will consider commercial real estate mortgage requests for both owner and non-owner occupied commercial properties/projects. Interest rates for commercial mortgages can be fixed or variable and are generally tied to an index, plus some fixed margin, or may be some combination of fixed and variable rate terms. Our professional commercial lending team will work closely with you to structure the best repayment plan that permits your business to grow, prosper and comfortably meet its debt service. We highly value the total business relationship and maintaining a Partners business operating checking account plays an important role in determining our best offering.

Depending on your specific business borrowing needs, it may be appropriate and beneficial to involve some level of credit enhancement from Local, State, or U.S. Government agencies. Our team of commercial lenders have experience with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), Finance Authority of Maine (FAME), USDA Rural Development (RD), as well as other local community Small Business Development Centers that can support your business borrowing needs.

Partners Bank offers flexible commercial construction loan financing for residential homebuilders, both with end buyers in place and sometimes on a speculative basis. We allow you sufficient time to complete construction, usually 6 to 9 months, and we only charge interest on the advances used. As a premiere construction lender in Southern Maine for 68 years, you can be assured we will work with you, enabling you to achieve timely completion and delivery.

Partners has the experts that can help you plan and finance that needed business expansion. This may take the form of a new commercial real estate loan, a new business term loan, a new line of credit, or most likely a combination of all three. Relocating to a new larger facility, enlarging your existing commercial building, moving out of the home-office, adding more equipment or machinery, or simply adding new personnel for improved customer service, may be exactly what your business needs. We have the dedicated and experienced commercial lenders that can work with you to achieve your growth objectives.

If you are a real estate developer/contractor and want to get that approved subdivision off the ground, then our professional team of commercial lenders can help you finance the site improvements, including the clearing, excavation and installation of the roads, water and sewerage lines. The up-front planning and financing expertise at this phase can be very critical to the success of a housing development project. As with building construction loans, funds are released as improvements occur and interest is only paid on funds actually disbursed.

Business lines of credit are usually secured by business assets and may also be secured by real estate. Lines of credit are ideal for meeting short-term seasonal fluctuations, supporting the timing of accounts receivable collection, and inventory needs of your business. You only pay interest on the amount advanced, make principal payments at your discretion, and agree to meet an annual clearance requirement. Lines are generally reviewed and renewed on an annual basis.

Partners commercial term loans are designed to meet the relatively short-term equipment or capital improvement needs of your business. Typically carrying a regular monthly repayment term of 7 years or less, fixed term loans can help finance business vehicle purchases, business expansions, computer systems, equipment purchases, leasehold improvements, or building improvements.
