  • Business Plan Evaluation: We prioritize a well-researched business plan over an extensive credit history, understanding that every great business starts somewhere.
  • Personal Guarantee Options: Flexible options for new business entity funding, providing a path forward even without a long operational history.
  • Industry Experience Consideration: Your professional background and industry insights play a significant role in our underwriting decisions.
  • Revenue Projection Analysis: For service-based startups, we meticulously analyze your future revenue forecasts to understand your growth potential.
  • Alternative Credit Assessment: We consider marketplace seller ratings and other non-traditional credit indicators for a holistic financial overview.
