4+% Long Term Financing for Wisconsin Business Owners Who Create Jobs
(This program is also available on a limited basis in qualifying areas (typically rural/semi-rural) throughout the country).
If you own a business in Wisconsin and you are planning on constructing or purchasing a commercial building that is considered “multi-use” or “multi-purpose” and your business will occupy the building AND create jobs you could qualify for below market commercial financing.
Typically, “multi-use” means a free-standing building which could be any number of different facilities. Good examples would be:
- free standing retail business
- light industrial building
- manufacturing facility
- warehouse
- medical or urgent care clinic
- machine shop
- dental office
- medical lab
- insurance office
Basically, a building that could easily be used by another business.
