WELCOME !

Thanks for dropping in for some hopefully great business info and on occasion some hopefully not too sarcastic comments on the state of Business Financing in Canada and what we are doing about it !

In 2004 I founded 7 PARK AVENUE FINANCIAL. At that time I had spent all my working life, at that time - Over 30 years in Commercial credit and lending and Canadian business financing. I believe the commercial lending landscape has drastically changed in Canada. I believe a void exists for business owners and finance managers for companies, large and small who want service, creativity, and alternatives.

Every day we strive to consistently deliver business financing that you feel meets the needs of your business. If you believe as we do that financing solutions and alternatives exist for your firm we want to talk to you. Our purpose is simple: we want to deliver the best business finance solutions for your company.

A Commercial Business Loan In Canada . Business Loans ? Want To Get Rid Of Financing Worries ?






It’s Easy To Go Wrong With Business Financing . Here’s How Not To!


OVERVIEW – Information on the commercial business loan in Canada. Financing loans are available through bank and non bank sources for assets and cash flow.



A commercial business loan in Canada. The ability to successfully achieve the financing the Canadian business owner or manager needs clearly eliminates a lot of the worrying around your business success.



In the case of Canada we're in a lot better shape these days than we were a few years ago. Even start ups seem to be able to get financed again!

In Canada those loans are going to come from Canadian commercial banks or non regulated commercial and alternative lenders. When we say non regulated basically we are saying ' they are not banks!”...simple as that.

Its commercial business loans that solve both survival and growth needs. Those loans cover equipment, real estate, working capital, and even acquisitions. What's important is to start the whole process even a bit before you need the financing - searching for financing in crisis mode is highly NOT recommended. That pretty well goes for line of credit facilities, which in many cases are what the business owner/manager still associates with a ' loan '.

That does though bring us to the point that it's important to understand that there is a huge difference in either term loans as opposed to monetizing current assets for cash flow - it the ' business line of credit'. It's therefore important to think of your business loans in terms of strategically acquiring financing.

So what can in fact term business loans be used for in Canada? A variety of assets can be financed- up to and including the corporate jet.

(Well we can dream can't we?!) . But typical assets financed under loans include computers, telecom assets, software, machinery, equipment, and even leasehold improvements. A great tip we can offer clients is that leaseholds up to 350,000.00 can in fact be financed at great rates, terms and structures under the Govt. SBL Business loan. Check out this loan program if you have revenues under 5 Million dollars per annum, which is the revenue cap of companies allowed to apply under the program.

At the outset of a business loan have a strong sense of the term of the loan. That is going to play into the lenders cash flow analysis, and at the same time you want to be able to match the term of the loan with the useful economic life of the asset. That same tip goes for lease financing those assets also by the way.

Bridge loans are offered by alternative and other lenders as a way of acquiring assets you normally might not be able to finance through a bank. In some cases you might even be exploring a sale leaseback to generate cash flow out of assets already owned. When it makes sense, key word ' makes sense ‘! that's a great way to generate cash flow. Remember also that you will need to have a strong sense of market and liquidation value when it comes to financing pre-owned or used assets. That’s a critical part of the lender equation.

One final tip we always talk to clients about is the concept of ' matching'. Simply speaking it means ensuring that you financing long term assets with long term financing vehicles such as a business loan. To put it more simply, don't finance that corporate jet out of the line of credit

In Canada business loans come from banks, leasing companies and asset based lenders. Seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can assist you with you commercial business loan needs.
