What questions I got to ask to real estate investment banks? I need to pick between 4 firms for a perm. loan.?

My firm, a real estate development firm, needs to get a permanent loan (approx. $50 mm) on a retail shopping center that will get built by April 2008. I need to choose between some loan experts (real estate investment banks) and I want to know what to ask them in order to make the best decision.
Some examples of these questions are:
What would be your commission on the loan? I heard it's usually 1.00%.
How will you staff your services for my need?

I want to know what else to ask.

Thank you for your help.

Mario, I'm a Canadian RE invester (small) with about 55 rental units, commercial and residential.

The best way to get answers is being honest, and telling whoever you call upfront you're new at this, and hired to choose a lender for 50 Million (or whatever) dollars for your firm.

Ask them simply how it works and what fee's they charge. For instance, there's sometimes a fee built into the interest rate that you don't know about that gets kicked back to the mortgage broker. I've had 1.5% fee's literally eliminated to 0% depending on the size of the mortgage (or blanket mortgage.)

Good luck, oh, and here's money in the bank for you:
Ask a bunch of my friends at the best online realestate forum run by investers much bigger and smarter than me:

Its called magicbullets forum, tell them NetWorth / Chrisvet sent you. They'll give you phenominal advice.

Is there anyone out there that need loan? Then Easy-Loans and Mortgages is the answer, I am Linsey Cilia From USA I just benefited from their loan program and received a loan from them in just 14 working days it was awesome you could try out their services and you will be glad you did...When I was so dipressed and don't know exactly what to do with my life that could yield money, I applied for several firms in Nigeria but got scammed over and over again.
