Commerce West Bank

CommerceWest Bank is a California commercial bank headquartered in Irvine, focused on small and mid-sized business banking. It offers a range of business financing options including lines of credit, term loans, equipment finance, commercial real estate financing, and construction finance. Because it serves California businesses, it may appeal to owners looking for a community bank relationship rather than a national lender. Qualification criteria — including minimum credit score, revenue, and time in business — aren't publicly listed, so plan to contact the bank directly. At least one complaint related to loan charges and customer treatment has been noted, which is worth keeping in mind as you evaluate fit.
