For multi-family (5+ units), as little as 20% down may be available, with excellent credit, quality building and good financials. Most multi-family is 25% down, and up to 35% down, depending on property type and property income.

It's going to depend on the type and amount you're looking to borrow. Could be as high as 85% for acquisition and/or rate and term refinance. 65-75% for cash out. Again, going to depend on a lot of factors but, that's what I could suggest off the cuff. If I can answer any add'l questions, I'd be happy to help.

There is no "Standard" LTV. When it comes to commercial property, there are no standard set of "Conforming guidelines" such as the case with residential lending programs. So each lender offering commercial funding and make up their own set of rules as they see fit.. For most commercial lenders, they will look at several factors in determining the allowable LTV.. Property type (Gas station, strip mall, laundry mat, car lot, multi-unit properties, hotel/motel, etc..) with each property type requiring a different allowable LTV.. Also, the LTV could be based on your level of experience.. for example, if you own 5 strip malls, and are looking to purchase another, then it's very possible the lender would allow for a higher LTV since you have a proven track record of success with strip malls... Conversely, if you have never borrowed for commercial lending and have no experience, then they might ask for a larger down payment/lower LTV.

As you're seeing from others, there are no "standards" because each lender has their own internal guidelines.

That depends to be honest. The loan to value and down payment requirements are different based on what type of commercial loan you are getting. I would do some checking with a local commercial lender and a bank to see what options they have available for your particular situation. Best wishes, Sean
