As an investor, there are a few different ways to go about financing real estate investments. Each one will have its own set of pros and cons, and your financing approach will depend on the property and the situation. For investors, it’s important to remember that not all financing options are created equal. What works for someone else may not necessarily work for you, but the trick is understanding which real estate financing option will compliment your business strategy. Let us guide you and compare the best real estate financing options.Â
What is Real Estate Financing?
An asset-based loan is secured by assets instead of emphasizing cash flow, which is typically real estate or whatever assets a business has on its balance sheet. The lender will use collateral that can be quickly and easily liquidated. Assets can also be accounts receivables, equipment, land, crop, purchase orders, and inventory. Asset-backed loans secured by collateral offered by Upwise are most often structured as term loans and revolving lines of credit.

How does Real Estate Loan work?
Most borrowers turn to asset-based lending because they’ve had bad luck getting approved by traditional cash flow-based lenders or they want a cheaper cost of capital and confidence in their ability to pay back the loan. In asset-based lending, tangible collateral serves as the most important aspect of the approval process. Borrowers will use an asset for more favorable terms typically resulting in a higher loan approval and lower interest rate.
The loan amount is determined by the market value of your assets. Typically, most lenders will lend 75 to 85% of the value of their accounts receivables, and around 50% of the cost of their inventory or equipment. Also 70% to 90% on the market value of the property and typically 50% of the value of raw land. Â
So, if you have assets that you would like to leverage as collateral for more favorable terms, then this may be the best choice for you.Â
Who Qualifies for Real Estate Financing?
Real estate financing is available to a wide range of individuals and entities, depending on the specific type of financing and lender requirements. Generally, those who qualify for real estate financing include individuals or businesses seeking to purchase, refinance, or invest in real estate properties. Eligibility criteria often consider factors such as creditworthiness, income or cash flow, down payment or equity, and the property’s value and potential.
Lenders typically evaluate the borrower’s credit history, debt-to-income ratio, employment stability, and the property’s marketability and potential for generating income. While requirements may vary among lenders, borrowers with a strong credit profile, stable income, and a sufficient down payment or equity position are more likely to qualify for favorable terms and rates.
It’s advisable for potential borrowers to research and compare lenders, understand the specific requirements of each financing option, and work towards meeting the qualifications necessary to secure real estate financing. Upwise can help you navigate through this process.Â

What truly set Mike apart was his honesty. He reviewed multiple lender options with me in a fair, transparent way, walking me through the pros and cons of each and helping me understand every angle. He encouraged me to move forward only with what felt right for my business, never once making me feel pressured to choose him or Upwise. That level of professionalism is rare.
Mike also worked hard to build genuine personal rapport — something no other representative I spoke with did. He took the time to understand my business, explored different paths, and made sure I felt confident and comfortable throughout the decision-making process.
The follow-up from Mike and every member of his team has been above and beyond anything I’ve experienced with other lenders. Every interaction feels thoughtful, client-focused, supportive and most important- genuine. I’m incredibly grateful for the experience and would confidently recommend Mike to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, ethical, and truly client-first lending partner.
Update: Leo contacted me, and after basically insulting me concerning their prior behavior, I decided to let them run my application. After being ghosted for the day, they finally came back and denied due to another loan my business was involved in. These people get their feelings hurt way to easy to be in this business. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

What do Real Estate Loans cost?
You should know how much the cost of capital will cost you no matter what type of financing you’re applying for.
Let’s take a look at a cost example.
Example of a Real Estate / Asset-Backed Loan
Let’s say you have a commercial property that you operate your business out of, that is worth approximately $1.1 Million.
In most cases, the lender will require you to get an appraisal done to determine the value of your property. Â
Let’s say the property’s appraised cost was determined to be $1 Million. In this scenario, Upwise will be able to lend 80% LTV based on the appraised value of the property. Meaning the loan size will be $800k based on the appraised cost of the asset. Â
The term length will determine the monthly payment and amortization schedule. Payments can be interest only, principal and interest rate, deferred, and an interest reserve may be required.
Consider other fees associated with asset-based loans as well. These fees include but may not be limited to appraisal fees, site survey fees, legal fees, escrow fees, origination fees, packaging fees, prepayment fee, and others.
Don’t overlook fees on your loan offer—be sure to factor in any and all small fees you might have to pay in order to understand the true cost of your asset-based loan.
In order to understand your loan completely, make sure to ask Upwise for an amortization schedule. All fees associated with the proposal will be transparently laid out for each borrower in a term sheet. For more information, please call (646) 837-5522 to speak with an Upwise Real Estate Financing Specialist.Â
