🏢 Closed! $3,960,000 SBA 504 Bridge Loan | Richland, WA

We helped a client secure financing to purchase a commercial building for their second business location — but this one reminded us that loan closings rarely follow a straight line.

The original plan included a cash-out refinance of the client's existing commercial building to cover the down payment. Appraisals were ordered, received, and the loan was submitted for underwriting. Then, as closing approached, the client reviewed the fees and rates tied to the refinance — and made the smart decision to put cash down instead to save on costs.

A great decision? Absolutely. A simple change to communicate? Not always. Adjustments like this require coordination with the lender, updated timelines, and a revised closing date.

That's exactly where we came in. We worked directly with all parties to relay the change request, keep the deal on track, and get to the closing table.

Loan closings don't always go as planned — but with the right team in your corner, they still get done. 💪

🎮 Another Deal Closed — Yakima, WA Arcade Facility | $1,780,900

Behind every successful sale and purchase is a lot of moving pieces — and this one had plenty.

AAI Financial is proud to have assisted both the buyer and seller in the sale and purchase of an arcade facility in Yakima, WA for $1,780,900. Deals like this don't happen overnight. This transaction involved real estate, personal property, and a lease that required careful negotiation — all with multiple attorneys at the table.

On top of that, SBA financing approval takes time, and the timing of everything else had to align perfectly: obtaining the proper business licenses, switching over card readers, coordinating payoffs, and making sure every piece fell into place on or before signing day.

It's the kind of deal where experience and persistence matter. We're proud of the outcome and genuinely happy for both our clients.

💼 Whether you're buying or selling a business, AAI Financial is here to help navigate the complexities from start to finish.

🍽️ Another deal CLOSED! Here's how AAI Financial helped turn a challenging restaurant start-up into a funded reality. 💪

When this deal landed on our desk mid-project, we knew we had our work cut out for us. The ask? $1,550,000 in financing for a start-up restaurant in Seattle, Washington — and the hurdles were stacked:

⚠️ Start-up restaurant (no operating history)
⚠️ Lease only — no real estate as collateral
⚠️ Project already underway when it came to us
⚠️ Client managing their own subs directly — no General Contractor in place

For most lenders, that's a hard pass. For AAI Financial, that's a puzzle worth solving.

Here's what we had to work with:

✅ A prime Seattle location with serious foot traffic potential
✅ One of the partners is an experienced, successful restaurant owner-operator with proven cash flow

We leaned into the strengths, structured the deal around the partner's track record, and found the right lending solution to get this project across the finish line — even mid-stream.

This is exactly what we do. When the deal is messy, the timeline is tight, and the traditional path is closed — AAI Financial finds the way.
