Alternative business financing is growing at a rapid rate and for good reason. Businesses are finding it harder than ever to get a conventional bank to approve their loan.
The worst part is, most conventional banks will take 2 months just to tell you that your business loan had been denied. We put together a list of the top 5 reasons why most banks will not approve your loan.
If your business falls into any one of the 5 below categories, it may be time to look for alternative business financing options.
Banks are looking at both business and personal credit when reviewing applications. If you have any of the following, chances are your bank loans will get declined.
Typically a bank likes to see that you have owned your business anywhere between 2-5 years. There is a good chance that your bank will deny your loan if your company hasn’t been around for that long.
If your business is showing a loss on your tax return or a small profit, getting a bank loan can be difficult. In addition, it can be challenging if you haven’t filed your most recent year’s business tax returns.
Having negative balances in your business checking accounts can be a red flag if you are applying for a business loan. Even a few can raise an underwriter’s concern.
Most conventional bank loans require some form of collateral. Not all businesses have enough collateral in order to get approved for the amount that they are looking for.
