Commercial mortgages in Switzerland: strategic financing leverage with Prestaflex Fribourg

In Switzerland, the commercial mortgage is an essential financing solution for companies wishing to acquire, refinance or add value to their professional real estate. Whether you own an office building, a hotel, a medical center or a retail outlet, Prestaflex Fribourg can help you structure your commercial mortgage to maximize your real estate capital.

What is a commercial mortgage?

A commercial mortgage is a loan secured on real estate used for business purposes. It enables companies to obtain liquidity in exchange for pledging their real estate as collateral. This type of financing is particularly suited to real estate investors, SMEs, large corporations and self-employed professionals looking to optimize their real estate assets.

Why opt for a commercial mortgage in Switzerland?

1. Optimize cash flow

Commercial mortgages enable you to obtain funds without selling your assets, thus guaranteeing better financial management and efficient allocation of resources.

2. Attractive interest rates

Commercial mortgages generally offer competitive interest rates compared with conventional business loans, facilitating access to long-term financing.

3. Flexible loan term

Commercial mortgages can be taken out for terms ranging from 5 to 30 years, depending on the nature of the asset and the company's financial strategy.

4. Tax deductions

In Switzerland, mortgage interest is tax-deductible, which can reduce the company's overall tax bill.
