Ask me anything about Commerical Real Estate Finance

[Trey Golston]

Hello all,

I got involved with Bigger Pockets back in high school before I had any clue what real estate was about. All I knew was, my family friend drove a Ferrari and he did Real Estate, therefore, I wanted to do Real Estate and drive an even faster Ferrari. I'm sure many young people got/are getting into real estate for the same reason, not knowing how much of a grind it really is. 

It has now all come full circle. After years of learning the ins and outs about commercial real estate and finance, I am back on Bigger Pockets (as of today). But instead of coming to the site to learn from others, the roles have now switched and I am here to help others with their commercial financing questions.

Fire away!

You need local banks KI. Most lenders won't touch 300k to 600k loan. It's like a 20,000 house in commercial. Large lenders originating hundreds of millions or billions a year of loans to them a small loan is 2 million.
