Yes! You can search for local funding opportunities through your county, town, chamber of commerce, local development agency (IDA), and business improvement district (BID). You can also visit your local Small Business Development Center (SBDC) to learn what’s available and get support in gathering what’s needed for your application.
It depends. Some lenders have strict criteria for credit scores and aren’t able to make exceptions, while others may want to learn more about why your credit score is lower before making a decision. The best course of action is to do what you can to improve your credit score before you apply. Order your free credit report and review it for any errors. If you find any, clear those up as soon as you can. If you’re behind on payments to a creditor, contact them to develop a payment plan. Improving your credit score will take time but it’s worth the investment.
Approval and funding times are different for each loan program. Loans for commercial real estate and fixed assets can take longer to approve and fund, while other programs for things like working capital and inventory may have a shorter approval timeline. You can ask your lender about the timeline before you apply. One thing to keep in mind is that being responsive and submitting all required documentation will keep the process moving forward efficiently!
