Commercial financing refers to loans specifically designed to fund the purchase, refinancing, or development of income-producing properties such as office buildings, retail spaces, apartments, or industrial facilities for Canadian real estate investors. These loans typically involve larger principal amounts, shorter amortization periods, and stricter lending criteria than residential mortgages, with rates and terms negotiated based on the property's cash flow and the borrower's financial profile.
