I have a commercial property worth 26Ok (my business runs out of it) and I want to draw out 80K to invest in RE.
1) What are the best type lenders to work with(Recommendations please)?
2) My credit score is in the low 700s what type of interest rates are we looking at?
3) What would the upfront costs be?

I'm assuming you want to stay in the building correct? Unless your company has a lease with the owner(you), I would say thats somewhat hurting the value as opposed to leasing that space up to a tenant.
I would talk to a local bank since the value is under 500k.
I would also recommend having a local commerical broker do an opinion of value for you so you can use that in your negotiations with the bank. Best of luck!

Yes I'm staying in the building until I can sell the business and the building together. Yes my company has a lease with the owner(me). So small local banks are the way to go for this kind of transaction? I will look for a local commercial broker also. Any other ideas?

Given the small loan amount this is definitely a local bank/credit union deal. Most banks have aggressive programs for smaller CRE deals so providing your numbers are above board I don't think you'll have too much trouble with this.

If you own commercial property free and clear how much can you take an equity loan for? And also who would it be through? I would use the equity line to purchase multifamily.
