Applying for Small Business Loans for Disabled Veterans in 6 Steps
Create a business plan. It’s important to know how you plan to use the funds and what type of outcome you expect. Determine your needs. Once you know what you want to achieve, price it out so you have a specific funding request. You don’t want to get stuck with too little and not accomplish your goals. But you also don’t want to borrow (and pay for) more than you need. Research lender eligibility requirements. Find out the criteria for different loan programs you’re interested in, such as time in business and annual revenue. This way, you won’t waste time applying to lenders that aren’t a good fit. Assemble required documentation. You’ll likely need both personal and business details, including financial statements and tax returns. Compare multiple lenders. As you complete your research, narrow down your list to the top lenders that match your needs. Find out if you can get a loan quote without impacting your credit score. Choose the best loan option. Once you have rates, terms, and fees to compare, you’ll be ready to make a decision and submit your full loan application.
