About business loans
What’s an asset-based borrow (a secured loan)?
An asset-based loan is when an business owner borrows from an asset that they own to get the funding. The asset can be an individual property, such as the family home or it could be a business asset such as a truck or piece or equipment.
The vast majority of lending institutions, even the largest banks, are inclined to guarantee loans against an asset. If you have trouble paying back the loan then your assets could be taken over by the lender. In essence it’s the process of securing new financing using the worth of the asset you already own.
Should I require security for a company loan?
For loans that exceed $150K, the requirement for asset security is not required upfront to access the money however, we do require a personal guarantee. So long as you comply with the terms of your loan (as stipulated in the loan contract) the security of assets is not needed. For loans of over $150K generally, you can get an individual guarantee and security is provided in the form of charges on assets.
