Frequently Asked Questions
Learn more about how Verde Outdoor Capital approaches financing, underwriting and the lending process from first conversation through closing and beyond.
We can be flexible depending on the opportunity. Most loans start around $2 million, with the capacity to lend $50 million or more when the transaction supports it. We look at the full picture, including the assets, cash flow, collateral, equity and how the capital will be used.
Our financing can support acquisitions, refinancing, development, digital conversions, expansion and other growth needs. We also finance billboard-related real estate, including easements and other opportunities tied to long-term site control.
Pricing depends on the borrower and the transaction. Our loans currently average around WSJ Prime + 3%, although rates may be lower or higher depending on the credit, assets and structure of the deal. Our origination fee is typically around 2%.
Start by telling us what you’re working on and what you need. Because our team knows the billboard business, we can focus on the transaction instead of spending time learning the industry. From there, we review the financials, assets and structure and work directly with you through approval and closing.
We look at the full transaction, with a general preference for under 65% loan-to-value and debt-service coverage of about 1.25x or better. Terms are flexible by deal, with amortizations up to 25 years, and we typically do not require a third-party appraisal.
Yes. We look at the relationship beyond a single loan. As your business grows and new financing needs come up, you can return to a lender that already knows your business, your assets and how you operate, subject to underwriting and approval.
You work directly with decision-makers who understand the billboard business, which helps reduce layers and keep the process moving. VOC is built around flexible loan terms, quicker term sheets, clear communication and staying aligned on the closing timeline from start to finish.
