Program Overview

How life company works.

Life insurance companies are the most relationship-driven, custom-structured lenders in the commercial mortgage market. They lend off their general account balance sheets, which means they don't need to securitize and can offer 10-, 15-, 20-, even 30-year fully fixed terms with custom amortization, flexible prepayment, and forward rate locks up to 24 months. Life co. debt is the lowest-cost, most stable capital available — but lenders are selective. They want institutional-quality assets in major markets with strong sponsors and conservative leverage (typically 50–65% LTV). Best for trophy office, Class A multifamily, prime industrial, grocery-anchored retail, and STNL credit deals.

  • Longest fixed-rate terms in the market — up to 30 years
  • Forward rate-lock up to 24 months pre-close
  • Custom prepayment — open windows, declining premiums, par-call options
  • Strongest sponsor / asset relationships for repeat capital
