WHAT IS DEBT FINANCING?
Fuel Growth. Preserve Equity.
Debt financing allows businesses and real estate investors to borrow capital that must be repaid over time-typically with interest-without giving up ownership in the asset.
It is one of the most widely used tools in commercial real estate to finance acquisitions, development, refinancing, and expansion.

Lender evaluates credit, property, and deal structure.
3. Approval
