The 6 C’s of CreditThe 6 C’s of Credit

• Character. Trustworthiness is the first thing that a bank looks at. In addition, banks will rely heavily on credit history.

• Capability to Manage the Business. Banks need to be sure that the person/people making the business decisions know what they are doing.

• Capacity. The Bank needs to determine the capability of your business and/or real estate transaction to turn a profit.

• Collateral and Guarantees. Collateral is important, especially in real estate transactions because it is all about location, location, location. The bank wants to get paid back either through profitability of the business/real estate proposal, a secondary source of repayment and/or the liquidation of the collateral.

• Context of the Business. Banks look at a number of factors that may potentially impact your business/real estate project. They will pay particular attention to potential economic (real estate cycles), legal, employee, supplier/contractor, tenant, or environmental problems/impacts.

• Conditions or Terms of Loans.  The nature of the loan request is an important factor. Banks will want to know three important things: "How much money are you requesting? What will it be used for? and For how long will it be needed?“

Real Estate Lending and FirreaReal Estate Lending and FirreaThe Financial Institutions Reform Recovery and Enforcement Act of

1989(FIRREA) is a United States federal law enacted in the wake of the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s.

• Appraisals - The major impact for real estate lending was that the law established new regulations for real estate appraisals. Title XI of FIRREA empowered federal regulators to adopt standards for real estate appraisal and promulgate licensing requirements to the states.

• LTV Ratios - Additionally, FIRREA specifies maximum advance rates that banks can lend on against different classes of real estate as shown below (For acquisitions, advance rates refer to the higher of “loan-to-cost” or “loan-to-value”. For construction loans, re-financings, and other transactions except acquisition loans, advance rates refer to “loan-to-appraised value”. )
