Commercial real estate cash-out refinance. Unlock equity with a clear financing plan.
Accessing equity in a commercial property requires more than a high valuation. MDN Capital Consulting helps sponsors evaluate cash-out refinancing options based on property income, existing debt, asset condition, use of proceeds and lender appetite.
Financing overview
Evaluate available equity before choosing a capital structure.
A cash-out refinance replaces existing financing with a new loan large enough to satisfy the current debt and potentially release additional proceeds. Feasible cash-out depends on loan-to-value limitations, lender costs, cash-flow coverage and closing expenses—not simply the difference between appraised value and the current payoff.
MDN reviews the proposed use of cash-out proceeds, current leases, property operations and debt maturities to determine whether permanent debt, a short-term bridge structure or another capital source best fits the business plan.
For broader parameters, review MDN Capital's commercial loan criteria, or submit a financing request for a transaction-specific review.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to common financing questions.
General information only. Terms depend on lender approval and individual circumstances; legal and tax matters require qualified advisers.
Does a higher appraisal guarantee more cash out?
No. Lenders also consider income, property condition, existing liens, marketability and their leverage limits.
Can I refinance a property with weak occupancy?
Potentially. A transitional bridge lender may consider the lease-up plan and collateral, but terms and required equity will differ from stabilized financing.
How do I estimate net cash-out proceeds?
Start with proposed gross loan proceeds, then deduct current payoff balances, closing costs, reserves and any required escrows.
Can cash-out proceeds be used for another acquisition?
Business-purpose uses may be eligible depending on the lender, collateral and applicable restrictions. Explain the use of proceeds upfront.
What documents should I send?
Provide the property address, estimated value, current payoff, requested loan amount, rent roll, operating statement and intended use of proceeds.
