Does Mission Oaks National Bank work with brokers?

Yes! Mission Oaks National Bank has a reputation as a broker friendly bank. We want to work with you to close all of your commercial real estate loans. Many of our Business Development Officers say that it is especially rewarding to close a loan for a broker that they have been working with for a number of years. We're in it for the long haul.

How can I get a quote for my commercial loan scenario?

You can fill out our online submission form and one of our Business Development Officers will contact you promptly.

Do brokers have to sign up with Mission Oaks National Bank in order to close a loan with MONB?

No. Mission Oaks National Bank has a broker friendly open submission process. There is no need to fill out lengthy broker packages or to go through a bunch of red tape even before you get to submit a loan. We want to work with you to close all of your commercial real estate loans from now on.

How do brokers make money when working with Mission Oaks National Bank?

Mission Oaks National Bank pays brokers a referral fee for their services. We can be very flexible in structuring this referral fee to meet the needs of the borrower and broker. Here is an example of some recently funded loans and the broker fees paid:

What is MONB's niche?

Our niche is owner-user commercial real estate. Our experience and expertise is in underwriting for owner-user business real estate such as hotel/motel, assisted living, office, retail, warehouse, light industrial, restaurant, and auto service/repair among many other property types. We are also very seasoned in SBA financing. While we have a preference for owner-user real estate, we are also experienced in financing investor owned real estate.

What kind of interest rates can Mission Oaks National Bank offer?

Our loan matrix will give you a ballpark idea of the rates and terms that we can offer on the various commercial property types. Click here to request our loan matrix and discover our commercial loan interest rates.

Does Mission Oaks National Bank do business-only loans (no commercial real estate)?

No. At this time Mission Oaks National Bank is not issuing any business-only loans that do not involve commercial real estate. We can however, offer Small Business Administration loans for the purchase of real estate as well as non-tangible assets such as business value.

What is the quickest way to have my loan scenario reviewed?

The quickest and easiest way to find out if your loan scenario is something that MONB can handle is to submit a loan online. One of our experienced Business Development Officers will review your scenario and let you know if it is something that we can get done.

I found Mission Oaks National Bank on a 3rd party website such as c-loans.com or scotsmanguide.com. Do I have to continue to submit loans to through these websites in order to work with MONB?

No. In fact, while we value the partnership of such companies, we will receive your scenarios faster if you submit a loan online or email a loan scenario directly to us, rather than to submit your loan to a 3rd party website.

Does Mission Oaks National Bank have a "Stated Income" program?

No. However, MONB underwrites loans with a common sense approach. We understand that a net loss does not always mean negative cash flow. Many borrowers and brokers mistakenly assume that they cannot qualify for a full documentation loan and in so doing, they pass up on an opportunity for a better rate and term. If you're not sure if the loan will qualify as a full documentation loan, submit a loan package and let one of our Business Development Officers tell you if your scenario has enough cash flow.

Do Mission Oaks National Bank employees have a size limit on emails?

Yes. MONB Business Development Officers, Loan Officers, and Loan Administrators can receive a maximum of 8MB per email. Please attach files to multiple emails if necessary.

For a quick answer on you new commercial real estate loan scenarios, email your preliminary packages to loans@missionoaksfunding.com.

I am interested in becoming an employee at Mission Oaks National Bank, who do I talk to?

Please send employment inquiries for the commercial lending division to our Vice-president, John Mitchell via email at jmitchell@missionoaksfunding.com.

How long will my loan take to close with Mission Oaks National Bank?

Our goal at MONB is to close your loan as quickly and painlessly as possible. We have closed many loans in 30 days or less. The time that it takes to close your loan depends on many factors such as: how long it will take an MAI certified commercial appraiser to complete an appraisal on the subject property, how long it has been since an environmental evaluation has been performed on the subject property, how quickly necessary documents are gathered and sent to MONB, and how cooperative all parties involved are towards the end goal of funding your loan.

The process can be expedited when borrowers, broker, sellers and agents are organized and prepared to gather and deliver the documents necessary to gain approval on your loan.

I was issued a Prequalification Letter and it says that a deposit is required to continue underwriting my loan; what will my deposit be used for? When do I get my deposit back? What if my loan is declined?

Commercial loans require a great deal of due diligence (certainly much more than residential loans). The deposit goes to cover the costs of this due diligence These costs include: a commercial appraisal, an environmental report, a preliminary title report, credit reports, D&B reports, and any other miscellaneous costs incurred during the underwriting process.

Any remaining funds of the deposit along with an itemized expense statement will be returned to the borrower at closing.

If the loan is declined, any unused portion of the deposit will be refunded in full (so long as no factual information was misrepresented - see Prequalification Letter for details). The appraisal and environmental reports will also be sent to the borrower.

Does MONB charge a packaging fee to underwrite loans?

Yes. After a preliminary package is reviewed and a loan is Prequalified, MONB asks for a non-refundable packaging fee to continue to underwrite the loan. The amount of the required packaging fee varies on the size and scope of the loan, but the packaging fees typically range from $1,000 to $2,000.

Can MONB use an appraisal that was ordered by a broker or a borrower?

No. It is considered to be a conflict of interest if a broker or a borrower (or even a seller) were to order an appraisal on the subject property. Therefore, all appraisals must be ordered by and assigned to Mission Oaks National Bank. Appraisals ordered by other qualified financial institutions that meet MONB's appraisal criteria may be acceptable on a case by case basis.

Can I receive a referral fee on loans outside of my state?

Yes. The laws for brokers and licensing vary from state to state, but Mission Oaks National Bank is a federally chartered bank and we can lend in all 50 states. Brokers may be restricted from charging and collecting fees from borrowers in different states, but MONB can pay brokers a referral fee regardless of the location of the subject property.

What are MONB's minimum and maximum loan amounts?

Our loan amounts range from about $250,000 (or maybe a little less) to about $15,000,000 (or maybe a little more).

Our minimum loan amount for SBA loans is $425,000.

Our minimum loan amount for multi-family property is $1,000,000.

What is the lowest credit score that MONB will work with?

At MONB we are more concerned with the nature of an applicant's credit history rather than basing our entire credit decision on the score alone. That said, applicants with scores below 600 usually have a credit history that might prevent them from qualifying for a loan with Mission Oaks National Bank. This is not true with every scenario. We urge brokers and borrowers that are seeking a loan with MONB to send us your credit report so that one of our qualified staff can review your credit report and we will let you know if your credit should qualify.

Does MONB offer SBA Loans?

Yes. Mission Oaks National Bank is a preferred SBA Lender. We offer SBA 504 loans and 7a loans. We are very experienced with SBA financing and we have been recognized for our efforts by being named Arizona's top SBA Lender.

What can I do as a broker to help get my client's loan funded as quickly as possible?

There are a few things that brokers can do to help their client's loan fund more quickly. The first is to have a good preliminary loan package ready to send to lenders for review. Also, be ready to gather additional documentation for the lender at their request. Practice makes perfect, so as you become more familiar with the commercial underwriting process, you will be more prepared for the next time out.
