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 Financing In Canada : Canadian Govt Loans Deliver





Unboxing government SBL Small Business loans in Canada






OVERVIEW – Information on government business financing in Canada. How Canadian govt guaranteed business loans solve financing challenges




Government business financing in Canada - While many entrepreneurs have heard of Canadian govt loans they have not fully understood his business finance offering. Let's ' unbox ' the program and discuss the merits and applicability of this loan to your business - and that applies to start ups, franchises... in fact any business tha is under the pre-requisite 5 Million in revenues. Let's dig in

Established by the federal gov't many years ago the Small Business Financing program is dedicated to helping new , young, and growing businesses access the financing they might otherwise not receive.

The uniqueness of loan is that the majority of the loan is ' guaranteed' to Canadian banks which offer the financing. At the end of the day it's the govt commitment to encourage Canadian banks to lend to new and smaller businesses. Naturally one of he benefits to the government is the overall economic stimulus in employment, taxes, etc.

In recent years upwards of 7000++ businesses access the loan annually - for billions of dollars. The accessibility of the loan is augmented by the fact that Canadian ' bricks and mortar' branches are on every main street in Canada. (Truth be told the challenge is not finding the right bank, it's finding the right banker).

The ability to get approved for a govt small business loan in Canada provides realistic access to capital for businesses who otherwise cannot qualify for ' traditional ' loans. Yet the actual offering of the program is just that - a traditional term loan at attractive rates, great amortizations, and even the ability to pre-pay without penalty.

Many businesses who utilize the loan are either new, or in some cases purchases of businesses, including the very popular ' franchise ' segment.

The requirements of the loan are pretty basic - the owner must have reasonable good personal credit history, and must be able to contribute a minimum of 10% or more of permanent capital to the financing in question. The loan can only be used to finance 3 separate asset categories - equipment, leasehold improvements, and real estate. (The latter, real estate is rarely used in our experience as commercial mtges are more suited to this type of finance need).

As important to understand what the loan does to is what it doesn't offer. You cannot use proceeds to refinance existing loans or for working capital/line of credit needs.

Other key aspects of getting approved include a good business plan, a cash flow forecast, and basic info on your business location, previous business experience, etc.
