  1. Business Term Loans: 3 Key Ways They Differ Discover the key differences between business term loans and what you might expect. Outline 3 crucial ways these loans differ from repayment schedules to terms helping you make informed decisions. Whether you’re expanding or managing cash flow, understanding business term loans is essential as it will help you make informed decisions for your business.

  2. What Is A Business Term Loan A business term loanis a loan that provides you with a lump sum of money upfront that you borrow from a lender, then pay back at fixed intervals over a set period of time, with interest. Depending on your lender and the terms of the loan, you’ll pay off the loan on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis. Repayment periods can last from a few months up to 10 years or more, and funding amounts can range from $2,000 to $5 million. Much of this depends on creditworthiness.

  3. Pros And Cons Of Term Loans Term loans have many benefits that make them a great business financing option, but they aren’t right for every situation or every company, so you’ll also want to be aware of the cons.

  4. Some Pros Of Term Loans You can borrow large loan amounts with flexible monthly payments. Long repayment terms can make loan repayment more affordable. Repaying term loans on time can build business credit, which is beneficial for new businesses. They can be unsecured, in some cases. The entire loan amount can be deposited quickly into a business checking account.

  5. Some Cons Of Term Loans Term loans can be less flexible than a business lines of credit or business credit card. Term loans with a shorter repayment term can have higher costs. Some lenders charge an origination fee to process your application.

  6. 3 Ways Term Loans Can Vary As lending has evolved in modern banking, term loans have also done the same. Here are a few things to know before selecting a loan and lender.

  7. Term Loans Can Come From Different Types Of Lenders Historically, small businesses have had to go to a traditional bank or credit union for lending. In recent years, this trend has shifted. 49% of firms received financing from a nonbank financial company while 48% used a traditional bank or credit union, according to the Small Business Credit Survey. Both options have advantages and disadvantages.

  8. Term Loans Have Different Term Lengths The length of your repayment term can have a big impact on whether this type of loan is a good financial decision. You’ll have to find a lender who offers you a term, payment schedule, and interest rate that make sense for your business. But unlike home mortgages, where you typically have a 15-year and a 30-year option, business term loans can be much more flexible.

  9. Short Term Loans Medium Term Loans Long-Term Loans

  10. Term Loans Have A Variety Of Uses Traditional term loans can be used for a large variety of different financing needs. While some, like the SBA 7(a) or especially an SBA 504, are limited in scope, in general, you can get a term loan for the following purposes:

  11. Real Estate Facility Repairs or Expension Equipment And Inventory Working Capital

  12. Refinancing Or Paying Off Debt If you previously took out a loan that doesn’t have favorable terms or you need to refinance, taking out a better loan can help you quickly pay off those old debts. Traditional term loans and SBA 7(a) loans can be used for this.

  13. What You Need To Get A Term Loan Each lender will likely require this list of documents for a term loan application. It’s advised to gather these documents before you begin your application process to ensure a smooth application process.

  14. Wrapping Up Term loans, whether traditional term loans or SBA loans, are a reliable source of funding for small business owners. Because they can come from such a wide variety of lenders and offer flexible repayment terms, term loans are an excellent financing option for business needs. By Russ Shumaker
