Alliance Lending Corporation

About

We partner with banks and credit unions to provide fixed asset financing as described above. Typically, a bank or credit union is in a first lien position for up to 50% of the total eligible project. Our company (CDC) representing the Small Business Administration is in a second lien position for up to 40% of the total eligible project. The applicant is responsible for the remaining 10%. Our portion of the loan can go up to $5 million dollars on a regular real estate loans and the interest rate is fixed for 20 years.

Loans incorporating energy savings or green technology can potentially exceed the $5 million dollar mark. We are an economic development company, so we also have a job creation requirement. One job for every $65,000 for real estate loans on the CDC/SBA portion and one job for every $100,000 for manufacturing loans on the CDC/SBA portion.

We can assist with that calculation. There are only two loan terms: 20 years on real estate loans and 10 years on equipment loans. The equipment loans must have a useful life of 10 years or longer.

For real estate loans: Purchasing an existing building requires that the applicant occupy at least 51% of the building. For ground-up construction loans, the applicant must occupy at least 60% of the building. The remaining portions can be leased out to other tenants.

Please consult with us for rules on leasing the remaining space. Special purpose projects (a listing of special projects can be made available) require the applicant to contribute an additional 5%. Also, new business start-ups also require an additional 5%.
