About Us:
Arthur L Pepperman II, Consultant, Lender, Business Broker
I've been a corporate officer, entrepreneur, banking consultant and family owned business consultant. I have either made, or seen, just about every business mistake ever made.
Looking back, one prime aspect of business stands out above all and that is the business owner's constant need to create, or obtain capital, to grow a successful business. That is even more true in these extremely tough economic times.
Having been in the Commercial lending business over 35 years, I have lived and prospered through many cycles of boom and recession periods. Let me assure you, the direct lenders who work for me are not hampered by pst sins in underwriting the Commercial Market, thus they are ready, willing, able to lend on good Commercial Loan requests.
As you probably know, many top Commercial Lenders are now gone, the Mega Banks aren't lending to Main Street at all and even most smaller local and regional Banks have put commercial lending on the back burner as they work off bad Development loans and rebuild their reserves.
Therefore, if you have a traditional Commercial Mortgage ballooning in 2010 or 2011, the odds are 30% to 50% of those mortgages "Will Not" be renewed by the present lender.Please understand how serious a non renewal can be to your business assets and lifestyle, ..... if you can't find another Lender to take out your present lender's Balloon demand.
50% to 60% of future commercial foreclosures will be caused by Bank Loan "Calls", due to Business Owners not having access to a second, willing to loan, lender when his/her Balloon becomes due!
Here are some suggestions to protect your assets and your business, if you have an upcoming "Ballooning Commercial Mortgage":
- Ask your present Lender NOW.... for a "written" commitment to renew your present loan NOW!
- If your Lender refuses to positively commit "in writing", apply to CMS Funding for a 2nd Lender immediately
- We will pre-underwrite loan request and shop it to our willing pool of niche lenders that best fits your type of loan
- If we can't get you a willing 2nd lender, then chances are your circumstances preclude any lender from lending to you in this depressed market
- If present circumstances preclude a 2nd lender, we will refer you to our in house "Commercial Improvement Division"to negotiate a "Loan Modification" with your original lender that usually results, if successful, in a win/win for both Borrower and Lender.
For more information on our "Commercial Improvement" (commercial loan modification) prgram, go to our website, cms-funding.com, then click on the "Information Center" on the Home Page and then click on "Refinancing 3 - Commercial Improvement.

Borrowers - Be Prepared
Experienced borrowers already know this, however if you are an occasional, or new, commercial borrower, the following will save you much valuable time and frustration while vastly improving your chances for a successful commercial funding.
In this example, we will assume you need a commercial mortgage, whether for purchase, a rate and term refinance or a cash out refinance, please be prepared as follows:
Obtain a Tri-Merge Credit Report or call us for a free one.
Prepare an up to date Personal Financial Statement. Be honest, include the good, bad and the ugly, if applicable.
Have copies of the last 2 years Corporate and Personal Tax Returns available
Have a YTD P & L and Balance Sheet at the ready, either yours or the Seller's, if purchasing.
Have your, or the Seller's, Rent Roll and property expenses up to date and accurate.
Have a two paragraph Executive Summary, if only in your head, ready to communicate your goals, needs and expectations.
Don't ask for, or expect, an interest rate "Quote" in the first conversation!
Do the above and the good news is:
If you are prepared, and communicative, the chances are that we can do some preliminary underwriting on your loan request, find the proper lender in your circumstances and in 24 to 48 hours get back to you with a written "Letter of Intent" (LOI) to do your loan within your time frame to close!
Your LOI will contain all the pertinent information such as rate, term, monthly payment and terms and condition for you to make an intelligent and informed decision of whether the Lender's offer meets your ROI needs and bottom line expectations.
By following this simple preparedness formula, you put yourself in the driver's seat.
To be ill prepared is a dis-service to your own business and to us whose only mission is to see you obtain the loan you desire.
Understand that the first preliminary underwriting may show weaknesses in your loan request that will preclude us from obtaining a LOI for you. By being prepared as outlined above, your information may very well lead us to suggestions to improve your package to be acceptable so an LOI can become available.
It is far better to learn correctable bad news from us first than to waste months shopping a loan that is fatally flawed from the git go.
An educated, or educable, borrower always wins over time.
Testimonials
When my bank wanted my small motel property for a bank branch, I refused to sell. They then used a technical clause in my mortgage agreement to foreclose. No one could help me until Arthur rode in on his white horse. He held off foreclosure, found new financing, saved my motel business and allowed me to pass on the property value to my children and grandchildren. I have aptly dubbed him "St Arthur"
Evelyn H Lee, Williamsburg VA
When my bank could not refinance my commercial mortgage, they referred me to Arthur Pepperman. Having dealt with other mortgage broker before, I have to say Mr. Pepperman is in another league. He immediately recognized the problems I was having and put together a loan package where everybody wins. I highly recommend this outstanding man.
Thomas Scorda, Lake Wales FL.
I had a $5,000,000 construction mortgage for a medical building that needed to be converted into a permanent mortgage. My bank was being purchased by a larger bank that didn't want to do the take out loan. I had never had problems getting take out loans before, but because my bank didn't want the loan, neither did any others. I asked the out going President for help and he recommended Arthur L Pepperman II. Within two months, Arthur did the job and at a better rate than I ever expected. This man really earns his fee.
John Sullivan, Manchester, NH
We do appreciate the drive, professionalism and guidance that Arthur portrayed in our attempt to correct the many mistakes made by our current "BROKER". Our situation would definitely be different if we had found his company earlier. Arthur, it has been a privilege working with you!
