What is Franchise Finance for Small Businesses?
SBA Loans for Franchise Financing
SBA loans, such as the 7(a) and 504 loan programs, are popular for buying franchises because they offer lower down payments, longer repayment terms, and are easier to qualify for compared to traditional bank loans. The federal government backs these loans, meaning banks can lend to more small business owners, even those with less collateral or limited experience.
Franchise-Specific and In-House Loans
Some franchisors offer their own financing or have partnerships with lenders to help new franchisees get started. These loans are tailored to the specific costs of the franchise and may have streamlined application processes. Additionally, some banks have programs designed especially for franchise businesses.
Equipment and Asset-Based Financing
Equipment and asset-based loans are used to buy the specific tools, vehicles, or real estate needed for the franchise. These loans use the equipment or assets as collateral and are helpful for franchise owners who need to make large upfront purchases to operate their business.
