About business loans
What exactly is an asset-based loan (a secured loan)?
An asset-based loan is when an company owner borrows from assets they own to obtain a loan. The asset may be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home, or an company asset such as a vehicle or other piece of machinery.
The vast majority of the lenders even the largest banks, are inclined to make loans secured by assets. If you have trouble paying back the loan, then the asset might be taken over by the lender. In essence, it is means of securing additional financing making use of the value of what you already own.
Should I need security to get an company loan?
For loans that exceed $150K, no asset security is required before you can access the money but we do require a personal guarantee. As long as you follow the terms of your loan (as specified in the loan contract) and you are able to meet your obligations, asset security will never be required. For loans of over $150,000 generally there is the option of a personal ensure and security that is in the form a charge over assets.
