Buying commercial property in baton rouge

Do you really have to have 20% to put down? Is there a way to finance that into the mortgage? It will be for a business-been renting for 8 years, ready to buy.
Can someone recommend an agent?

Yes, you have to have some skin in the game these days. For an owner occupied building, you can do 85% LTV (most banks).
Two other options:
Get financing from the bank for 80%. Put 5-10% of your money into the transaction. Let the current owner take a note back for the rest as owner financing. Some banks will do a loan for 80-85% LTV and let the owner take a note back for 20-25% equity. Not many, but there are some out there still. Most want skin in the game from the Borrower.
Or, you can find a bank that does SBA 504 lending. That will get you up to 90% LTV. A little pricey sometimes, but it gets you where you want to be in terms of a low down payment and long fixed rate.

Knew that would get a comment from you!
I didn't say all, I said some! And it isn't that bad of a deal on an owner occupied building with the operating company and individuals guaranteeing the debt (assuming it's a strong company)! We're not talking a shopping center deal here!
And I said most banks want skin in the game.....Fill your glass back up, it's half empty!

Does that owner's note appear on the borrower's FS? I suspect at "some banks" that do these types of deals it doesn't....
But I'm not the most optimistic person....

It's Louisiana man, of course it doesn't. It's a handshake deal.
Talk about difference in borrowers between LA and DC. Man, night and day in sophistication and knowledge of why we do the things we do. They don't live under a rock like the borrower's we had in LA. They get it

Well, that's loan fraud then...
Just playing devil's advocate for the OP...

Playing Jefferson the entire game was a fraud of a more serious nature than this...for sure.
