    Hi All
    Can any of you guys dealing in investor’s loans point me in the right direction?

    I have found a commercial deal in NZ through a friend. It is a shop that will return a good positive cash flow. I approached a mortgage broker who I know and he told me because the property was under $20000 I would not be able to get finance.
    Now I don’t know if this is correct or he just could not be bothered finding me finance as there would not be a lot of profit in a small loan like this for him.
    Any ideas as I think this is a good deal if I can get the money together.

    Kerwyn.

    As I mentioned in the reply to your email:

    You won’t get a mortgage on a loan this small – $50 000 is usually the
    minimum. I don’t think it would be worth it either. I would consider a
    personal loan or even a credit card to cover this purchase.

    The fees charged to open a commercial property loan would probably be more
    than the additional interest charged on a credit card or personal loan –
    Personal loans are around 9% and credit cards a little higher.

    All the best,

    Yes I agree with Simon, just pay cash or using a credit card would be better than a loan. Commerical loans usually have high application fees and high valuation fees – $1000+.
