Financing Guidance for Franchise Candidates
Buying a franchise means weighing the business opportunity and the financing at the same time. We keep the financing side clear and moving.
Make sense of the options
SBA 7(a) is the most common option for franchise candidates. Depending on the plan, equipment financing or conventional bank financing can also fit.
What usually decides the deal
Lenders focus on three things: liquidity, how your household is covered during the first year, and collateral. We look at all three on the first call.
Start before you sign a lease
The best time to talk with us is before you have a lease or real estate secured. That leaves time to structure the deal and line up the right lender.
Move the transaction forward
We structure the request, find the lender, and keep the financing moving alongside the purchase.
