In short
Madrid commercial finance funds offices, retail, logistics and mixed-use buildings, typically at 50–65% loan-to-value over five to fifteen years, priced over Euribor. Underwriting focuses on rental income, tenant covenant and location rather than on the borrower's declared personal income.

Commercial margins and cover ratios on this page were last reviewed by our Spanish finance team in July 2026. The monthly average changes once a month; pricing on any individual asset depends on sector, tenant covenant, unexpired lease term, loan-to-value and borrower structure.

Frequently asked
Well-let offices along the Castellana axis and in the CBD, prime high-street retail, logistics in the Corredor del Henares, and hotel stock in the centre are the most consistently financed.
Typically 50–60% of value. Long unexpired lease terms and strong tenant covenants push leverage to the upper end; short-income or vacant assets are sized more conservatively.
Yes — Spanish SL ownership is the norm for institutional and private investment stock, and lenders are comfortable lending to the SPV with guarantees from the parent or sponsor where appropriate.
Yes. Owner-occupier facilities are assessed on the trading business as well as the asset, and can include sale-and-leaseback structures to release capital.
Yes. Where a Madrid scheme is being built to retain, a combined development-and-investment facility can be structured so there is no separate refinance event at practical completion.
DSCR is net operating income divided by annual debt service. Take gross rent, deduct non-recoverable costs such as management, insurance, IBI and a maintenance allowance to get net operating income, then divide by the interest and capital payable over twelve months. Net income of €260,000 against debt service of €200,000 gives a DSCR of 1.30x.
A minimum of 1.30x on standard investment stock is the usual test. Hotels, leisure and other trading assets are typically held to 1.40x–1.50x because income is operational rather than contracted, while long-let assets with an institutional covenant can be accepted closer to 1.20x.
Lenders test at a stressed rate, not the pay rate. On a floating facility priced at around 5.45% all-in, expect a stress of one to two points above that, or a floor rate set by the credit committee. Hedging the loan with a cap or swap usually allows the test to be run closer to the hedged rate.
Whichever is lower. The lender sizes the debt that net income can service at the minimum cover ratio, then caps that figure at the loan-to-value limit. On a high-yielding asset the LTV cap usually binds; on a prime, low-yielding asset cover binds and the resulting leverage sits well below the headline LTV.
Signed leases with unexpired terms, a tenancy schedule, the last two to three years of certified accounts or trading figures for operational assets, a current rent roll, evidence of arrears, and a service-charge and non-recoverable cost breakdown. A RICS-equivalent valuation confirms the market rent underpinning the calculation.
