Most entrepreneurs will need to borrow some type of capital at some point in their business and most people do not have family and friends that can loan them the money that they are looking for. The good news is that the business capital is out there but the bad news is there are many different types of loan programs to choose from and figuring out which ones you qualify for can be confusing. Some loans only fund specific things, while other types of loans may give you more leeway. Investment Madison can help you to figure which loan type would best suit your business.
The first step to securing a business loan is understanding what types of loans are out there. One of the loans that you hear a lot about is a Small Business Association or SBA loans. These loans are backed by the SBA and are usually distributed through local banks, credit unions or other agencies. These loans can be used to purchase inventory, equipment, supplies, furniture and more.
Line of credit loans are short term business loans in which a line of credit is established that can be deposited into your business account as needed and you only have to pay interest on the amount of funding that you actually use. While these types of loans can be used for operating capital or to buy inventory they cannot be used to purchase equipment.
A line of credit loan are not be confused with a revolving line of credit and that is when the lender extends a certain amount of money that once repaid can be borrowed again without having to re-qualify for the monies. The borrower would pay interest on the entire amount of the loan from the time they take possession of the loan up until it is repaid. This type of loan has more flexibility in its use.
