Frequently Asked Questions

What is mezzanine financing?

Mezzanine financing is capital that sits between senior bank loans and equity. It helps fill the gap when a bank loan doesn’t cover the full amount you need, without requiring you to give up more ownership.

How is mezzanine different from equity or senior debt?

Senior debt (bank loans): Lowest cost, but limited in size and flexibility.

Equity: Flexible but requires giving up ownership.

Mezzanine: Higher cost than bank debt, lower than equity, and lets you keep control while getting the capital to grow.

Who is a good fit for a mezzanine loan?

Businesses with strong, predictable cash flow, like established hotels or growing CPG brands, that need extra capital for acquisitions, expansions, or large projects but don’t want to dilute ownership.

How much can I borrow with mezzanine financing?

Amounts vary, but most mezzanine lenders offer ranges from $2 million to $50+ million.

What does it cost compared to bank loans?

Mezzanine financing is typically more expensive than senior bank debt because lenders take on more risk, but it’s less costly than raising new equity since you keep ownership. Rates and structures vary by lender, which is why comparing terms matters.
