commercial real estate in california

A:You need a real estate sales license

A:There is no difference. You can have a brokers license or a sales license and use them to sell residential or commercial.

A:mixed use is different from apartment? Apartment run $175-$225 sf. Mixed us is less because the first floor is usually tenant build out, but I'm sure your aware of all this. The real question is why your architect is not giving you help with this?

A:I know one thing for sure, Commercial loans DO NOT have to obey the same rules as a residential loan. So probably, I believe, that there is NO Max prepay on commercial loans in California, unless California has recently established such rules in their state. Then if you suspect that California has such rules, then you might want to call or go to the web site of the California state agency for regulating loans

A:Your best bet is to talk to lenders and learn how we qualify commercial borrowers. We look at the property just as much as do at the borrower. Learn the ins and outs so that you know what to look for when selecting a property and how to negotiate with the seller. You can also find sellers that are willing to carry a note, in which case you don't need a commercial lender at all. Good luck!
