About business loans
What is asset-based borrowing (a secured loan)?
Asset-based borrowing occurs when the business owner uses an asset they own to get the loan. The asset may be a personal asset like the family home or it could be a company property like a truck or piece of equipment.
The majority of lenders, even the largest banks, are inclined to secure loans against assets. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, then your assets could be transferred to the lender. In essence it is means of securing additional financing using the worth of the asset you already own.
What do I require security to secure a business loan?
For loans up to $150,000 no asset security is required prior to the loan’s access but we require a personal guarantee. require an individual guarantee. As long as you follow the loan terms (as stipulated in your loan contract document) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security will never be needed.
