A small business loan is a funding option specifically designed for small businesses, allowing existing businesses or startup companies to borrow money from various lenders. Different types are available to help entrepreneurs meet different financial goals — repayment terms, qualifications, and use of funds depend on the specific type of loan.
Equipment financing allows businesses to obtain equipment through a loan or lease, used to purchase many types of tangible business assets. The equipment being purchased may also serve as collateral, depending on the lender and financing program.
AR Financing allows a business to access working capital based on its outstanding customer invoices. Depending on the structure, a business may sell its outstanding invoices to a financing company or use them as collateral — helping access cash without waiting for customers to pay.
A Merchant Cash Advance is generally not structured as a traditional business loan. Instead, a business receives an upfront amount of capital in exchange for an agreed-upon share of its future sales or receivables. Repayment terms vary by provider, so it's worth reviewing the total repayment amount, frequency, and fees carefully before accepting an offer.
Franchise financing provides funding that may be used to purchase, open, expand, or operate a franchise business. Options and requirements vary depending on the franchise, borrower, lender, and financing program.
Financing used to purchase, refinance, renovate, or improve residential real estate that is primarily intended as an investment rather than the borrower's primary residence. Qualifications, down-payment requirements, interest rates, and repayment terms vary by lender and program.
Startup capital refers to money entrepreneurs use to launch and develop new businesses. Funding may come from loans, lines of credit, business credit cards, investors, personal capital, or other financing sources.
CRE financing refers to funding used to purchase, refinance, renovate, develop, or improve real estate used for business or investment purposes. Structures, qualifications, down payments, and repayment terms vary depending on the property, borrower, lender, and financing program.
