How do I know a Ohio lender is legitimate?

Look for a charter or license link, verified status, SBA or CDFI approval where it applies, and fees in writing. Every one of those links to its official source on the entry.

What does a lender look at first?

Cash flow, credit, collateral, time in business and how much of your own money is in the deal. Each lender's minimums show on its entry so you can check fit before you call.

How does a lender get on the register?

Entries start from public records: charters, program lists and business filings. Standing rises as the lender claims its entry, adds its loan officers and verifies its details.

What happens when I request contact?

Your request goes to the lender or loan officer you chose, in their Levr workspace, and to no one else. Most reply within two business days.
