Commercial Lender (U.S.) - Costs of Commercial Lenders

Costs of Commercial Lenders

Commercial lenders weigh the type, quality, and equity of the hard collateral very heavily. They provide the borrower with the greatest flexibility but also the highest rates when compared with bank loans.

Famous quotes containing the words costs, commercial and/or lenders:

    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Gratitude among friends is like credit among tradesmen: it keeps business up, and maintains commerce. And we pay not because it is just to discharge our debts, but that we might the more easily find lenders on another occasion.”
    —François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
