When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

  • Baltimore-area entrepreneurs seeking startup or growth credit with planning support.

What to weigh carefully

  • A $100 application fee and $40 credit-report fee per owner/guarantor are published.
  • Recent bankruptcy and unresolved IRS debt can affect eligibility.

Questions before you accept an offer

  1. Does my address meet the Baltimore-area requirement?
  2. Which product and collateral structure apply?

Ask for written terms. Compare net cash received, total repayment, fees, payment timing and early-payoff costs for the same financing need.

Prepare your comparison

Use the same questions and figures for each offer you receive.
