Serious question from a happy software engineer, what do you all love about your work/actually enjoy doing during working hours?

Can I get a commercial loan without 25% down?

I'm under contract for a new build in progress that won't be done until much later this year. I fully expect interest rates will be higher than what I originally estimated.

I can take it financially, but wondering, If I absolutely needed to get out of buying it, what recourse do I have? Or could I go ahead, and refinance later (who knows rates at that time...)?
