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.

5 Reasons To Consider Canada Government loans . How To Use the SBL Federal Loan Program




SBL Loans - Consider the Program For These Business Needs

Information on Canada government SBL LOANS . The federal small business loan can be used for a variety of business uses .. here are some of them .



We're big supporters of the Canada government loans, commonly called the ' SBL loan ‘. Why? This federal loan (you’ll soon see it’s not as federal as you think ... it's more local ...) can be used for a variety of solid business reasons. What are those uses then? Let's explore.


Canada government loans are the ideal financing solution for a business start up. SBL financing compliments significantly your own equity contribution to the business. A large amount of outside collateral is in fact not required for the federal SBL loan. Traditional financing via Canada's chartered banks and other lenders often make it difficult to achieve any proper level of start up financing.

Amortizations are available that make sense for your start up. You are trying to minimize monthly payments and maximize cash flow. There isn't a day when we don't talk to an entrepreneurial client who doesnt feel their resolve to start and succeed in business isn’t tested, so the federal small business loan is a solution to the testing of your resolve!

Our second category or use of this financing is ' Equipment. When you are looking to purchase assets to grow and maximize your profits government loans make a tremendous amount of sense.

Your equity contribution, i.e. the down payment that you would typically associate with a lease financing is low, the 5-7 year term amortizations make sense, and the bottom line it's a classic use of matching your new assets useful economic life to the term of a loan.


Use # 3 for Canada government loans. Buying a business. Funding from our proposed financing solution allows you to purchase an existing business.

We caution clients that the requirement for purchasing a business using the SBL vehicle requires that the seller agree to an asset sale, as opposed to a share sale. Almost any industry can be financed in this manner, as long as there are assets in the business that you are acquiring.

The good news here is that the emphasis on the financing of your proposed purchase is focused on the previous success of the business, as well as your ability and experience to run and grow the business. The SBL loan can also finance real estate as part of a business purchase - in this case the traditional limit of financing actually increases to $ 500,000.00.

Potential use # 4 for the Federal small business loan - refinancing! If you or your firm incorporated or otherwise have purchased assets within the last 6 months they can be refinanced under our proposed program. This generates working capital that can be put back in your business. In certain cases an appraisal might be required on the asset, but that is a very modest expenditure relative to the benefits of the financing received that come back into your business cash flow.

Finally, use # 5 for Canada government loans. It's buying and financing a franchise. Entrepreneurs in Canada finance thousands of franchises each year under the program, which in many ways is perfectly suited to the challenges of a franchise.

There you have it, 5 solid uses for the utilization for the federal SBL Loan. As we noted federal denotes Ottawa and government, but Canada’s chartered banks administer and fund the program under federal auspices. Speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing on how you or your business can utilize this valuable Canadian business financing vehicle.
