Asset-based borrowing is when the business owner utilises assets they own to get the funds for a loan. The asset could be an individual asset, such as the family home or it could be a business asset like a truck or piece or equipment.
The vast majority of banks, even the big banks, tend to secure loans against assets. If you have trouble paying back the loan then the asset could be offered for sale by the lender. In essence it’s an opportunity to secure new funding taking advantage of the value of what you already own.
Up to $150,000 in loans there is no requirement for asset security upfront to access the money, however we do need a personal guarantee. In the event that you fulfill your loan obligations (as specified in the loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security is not required. If you take out loans in excess of $150K generally, there is a personal ensure and security in the form of an asset charge.
