Questions before you accept an offer

Can payments follow my seasonal revenue?
What owner equity and personal collateral are needed?

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.
