Short-term bridge loan · Midwest

Bridge loans for liquor store real estate across the Midwest

From 9% · up to ~70% of value · 3–24 months · $50K–$1M · 1–3 pts

Liquor and package stores are steady, cash-heavy businesses that many banks still avoid. When you own or are buying the building, we lend on it: purchase the real estate, pay off a note, or pull cash out to buy inventory or a second store.

What we look at

How we underwrite liquor stores.

  • Value of the building and lot, with the business as supporting evidence
  • License status and transferability in your city and state
  • Lease or owner-occupancy structure
  • Exit: refinance into SBA or conventional debt, or sale

Questions

Straight answers.

For the business, yes — for the loan, the real estate carries the collateral. We confirm the license is in good standing because it supports your exit.
