Looking to buy a large metal building later this year and wondering if it is better to just buy in cash or is there a good option to finance it?

As far as being “better to pay cash”, that’s only up to you. The price will be the same, but of course you’ll be paying all the interest over the life of the loan.

If you want/need a loan, you’d have to do some sort of HE/HELOC or something like a home improvement type loan. There’s a lot of options with varying requirements. Banks or Credit Unions usually have a product that would work. When I built my pool, I used LightStream. It was by far the easiest loan process I’ve ever done.

Same. Ridiculously easy for those with good credit.

I refinanced 2 years ago when rates were low and did a home renovation type loan to include a portion of the shop cost into my mortgage.

HELOC or an unsecured loan. you got to decide how much you value having an unsecured loan vs something tied to house.

if interest is tax deductible, i'd lean to a HELOC route being semi aggressive with payments over a 5 year plan.

I would check with a Credit Union. They usually have better interest rates for things like that
