For the last several years access to capital has been tight. Banks and lending institutions are scared of additional toxic notes they know they might have in their books, preventing them from lending out funds to quality small business borrowers.
Recently, there have been a few reports that big banks and lending institutions are easing up a bit on their lending criteria. In the midst of our recession you had to be God’s gift to this earth in order to be approved for a business loan. This proved to put quite a few small business owners out of business.
Instead of having a perfect credit score, a business age that rivals the qualification for a senior citizen discount, and numbers that all small business owners dream of having, you can now be approved for a line of credit or traditional bank loan with less. SmallBusinessLoans.com is a business loan matchmaking website where they match your small business loan needs with the right lender. They have just incorporated a 6 step program that guarantees a small business owner 5 vendor trade lines, and 3 business credit cards that only report on your business credit report and not your personal credit report.
Some of the qualifications that you are going to need to be approved for some of these programs at SmallBusinessLoans.com are having a 550 plus credit score, no open bankruptcies, liens, or judgments, and that you are a legitimate business. If you fall under this criteria, you can easily receive up to $25,000 in vendor lines or business credit lines.
So we are in fact seeing lenders ease up a bit when it comes to business loans and what it takes to be approved. Small business owners think that banks are the only place to seek financing. Get on the web and search for private money lenders, credit unions, etc. There are going to be organizations that take advantage of this opportunity and lend to the small business community.
What has your experience been with business loans in this economy? What are some of the qualifications the banks are asking you to meet?
