Whenever a business needs a loan, the presentation of the loan details (use of funds), the forward looking plan for the business (business plan) and the past performance of the company (historical data) must be presented to the lender in a format that is understandable, professional and coherent. Our Funding experts know how to present your loan proposal in the most favorable possible light, with a professional finish that insures your proposal is read. Loan officers are inundated with many requests for funding per day, most requests receive a cursory glance and are immediately denied because either the data needed for an informed decision are not readily ascertainable or the data doesn’t tell the story of the request in an easily digestible manner.
We cannot guarantee loan approval, but we can prepare your loan package in a comprehensive and professional manner that gives your business the best opportunity for consideration. If, during the information gathering process, our funding expert finds that changes are needed to improve the chances for funding (whether management, credit worthiness, or presentation) they can make recommendations to the owner to make those changes prior to submission. We also have a network of non-standard lenders to assist businesses that have been designated problem credits by the standard lending organizations (banks).
