Other Online Franchise Lenders

  • Most of their lenders only finance 80% of the total project costs of startup franchise locations. Sometimes they go to 85%.  This means you eventually discover that you have to inject more money into the project than you expected.
  • Most do not have actual previous commercial underwriters on staff to assist you through the loan process. They are just staffed with salespeople, most with no previous commercial lending experience.
  • They do not collect enough required documents during the online application process.  Making the client feel blindsided and frustrated once they begin working with a lender.
