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.

Government Business Loans. Here’s the Rules To Follow In SBL Funding Success




The Language Of The SBL Loan In Canada


OVERVIEW – .Information on the successful acquisition of government business loans in Canada . Funding for SBL loans just might be easier than you think if you know the lingo and rules!



Governement business loans
in Canada. When you understand the ' rules ' and the ' lingo ' (the language of SBL Loans) you are of course well primed to achieve business funding success. Let's dig in.

There is no doubt that Canadian business owners, including start ups are more interested than ever in exploring govt small business loans under the Federal BIL/CSBF program. Those are the actual acronyms for the program that is offered/sponsored by Industry Canada in Ottawa. Most of us just call it the ' SBL' - the small business loan.

At the end of the day understanding the rules of being successful in government guaranteed loans comes down to just a few basic components

Qualifications

Documentation

Approval Requirements

So why is the SBL such a solid option when financing challenges are tough as ever? Of the 7000-8000 loans that are approved under the program we would venture to say that many of those are start ups or franchise acquisitions. Traditional financing for the start up or franchising acquisition is tough to get, so government business loans offer a perfect solution to that need.

While many business owners mistakenly think that they have to deal with ' the government ' for this financing the truth is all it takes is to seek out and find a Canadian banker that is knowledgeable and supportive of the program. (In our experience let's just say that some bankers either aren't interested or not qualified to successfully back you request - Enough said!)

All business owners and managers are in favor of increasing their odds of approval - making the program uncomplicated and straightforward is what we are trying to convey.

While we do basically agree that there are more choices than ever for non bank financing in Canada today we also recognize that the requirements from many commercial finance companies don't allow everyone to achieve financing success. So business owners/ managers seeking loans for their business are often asked for 100 per cent personal guarantees, outside collateral, co signers, etc. Other requirements might include strict covenants and ratio maintenance, and penalties when you get successful and want to prepay the loans!


So where do government business loans weigh in on in those areas. Well get ready, because it’s all good news:

100% Personal guarantees for SBL financing is not required

No outside collateral is required

Co -signers are not accepted by the program

No ongoing covenants need to be maintained

Pre payment of the loan comes with no penalties


Bottom line - It just doesnt get any better!

Seek out and speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor who can help you out with the rules of government business loans and funding approval for your business.

P.S. The loan maximum under the program is $350,000.00 and your start up or business must have projected or actual revenues less than 5 Million dollars.
