What affects the price

When you apply for a loan, lenders look at a few main things to determine your rate. Your credit history and how long you have been in business act as the foundation. The purpose of the funds and the current strength of your cash flow also play a major role in the terms you receive. Generally, interest rates for these types of financing typically fall between 7% and 25% depending on your specific profile and collateral options. Every business has a unique situation, so we review your details to find the best fit for your needs. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
