Defining a Loan Covenant
The first step in identifying the loan covenants is understanding what they are. A loan covenant is a mutual agreement between the lender and the borrower on what standards must be maintained by both parties. Examples of loan covenants are:
- Debt Coverage Ratio
- Occupancy
- Loan to Cost
- Loan to Value
Your loan documents will spell out the specific agreements around any and all metrics you agreed to.
