What Maryland means for a bridge lender

Maryland foreclosures generally go through the courts under a power of sale or assent to decree in the deed of trust, a hybrid process. Maryland charges recordation tax on recorded deeds of trust, and some counties regulate residential rent increases.

Whether a lender can use a faster power-of-sale remedy depends on the security instrument and the loan documents. Ask each lender which process its documents use, because it affects how the lender views its downside.

Self storage specifics

Review zoning for self storage use, since many cities limit where storage is allowed or require special approvals, and check state lien law requirements for handling delinquent units.

How self storage bridge loans are sized

Many asset-based bridge lenders lend around 60–75% of as-is value on self storage, with lower leverage for facilities in early lease-up, in markets with significant new supply, or with low economic occupancy. When the plan includes adding climate control, converting an existing building or expanding on the existing site, some lenders size to loan-to-cost with the total capped by stabilized value. Bridge lenders here do not fund ground-up construction.

What lenders will ask for

  • Unit mix and rent roll with street and in-place rates
  • Occupancy report showing physical and economic occupancy
  • Trailing 12-month operating statement and month-by-month history
