The demand increased as a result of pandemic restrictions that made the children attend their school and people work for their office virtually. When everything went virtual, people started requiring more space hence looked for bigger places.

Older millennials who lived along with their children in major areas of big cities started looking for houses in less expensive neighborhoods. As the National Association of Realtors (NAR) reported, people put their homes for sale because of space issues.

Can Traditional Banks Catch Up in the Lending Game?

Right now, most commercial real estate lenders are still using outdated technology that has been around longer than the internet. Obviously, much has changed in the rest of the world since these lending programs came into being. Many of the challenges facing commercial lending today could be resolved with the use of modern technology. 


Currently, the commercial lending process takes an average of 3 months to complete. The borrower chooses the real estate they’re interested in and they identify their lending needs. Then the broker contacts several lenders to find the best deal. The lender then begins the months-long due diligence process. The result is wasted time and money, missed opportunities for lenders, and frustrated borrowers who rarely get the deal they wanted.
