Business funding · Personal / Start-Up Term Loan

Term funding when the business is too new to underwrite.

Lenders in this category underwrite the owner rather than the operating history, so a start-up with no revenue can still be considered. Strong personal credit and a debt-to-income ratio under 50% carry the file.
