Owner-Occupied Commercial Real Estate • Kansas City • St. Louis • Springfield • Columbia • Independence
Missouri’s leading business markets — Kansas City, St. Louis, Springfield, Columbia, and Independence — continue to attract owner-operators seeking long-term control of their commercial facilities. Cornovus Capital structures SBA 7(a) 100 percent CRE financing for qualified Missouri businesses, acquisitions, and partner buyouts when SBA program requirements and lender approval are satisfied.
We underwrite the operating company and the commercial property together across office, medical, warehouse, flex, light industrial, and mixed-use buildings that are primarily occupied by the borrower’s business. Through integrated credit analysis, SBA eligibility strategy, and packaging, Cornovus Capital helps Missouri borrowers pursue 100% financing while maintaining sustainable DSCR and lender-ready documentation.
Whether acquiring a facility in St. Louis, refinancing an owner-occupied building in Kansas City, or executing a partner buyout for a long-standing Missouri business, our advisory process prioritizes execution certainty so fully leveraged SBA 7(a) structures remain durable post-closing.
