Why the usual lenders say no.
Your revenue is real. The problem is the form. Here is why traditional underwriting turns away healthy operators in this space, and what we do differently.
Low credit score
Banks typically require a 680+ FICO score for standard term loans.
Insufficient revenue
Traditional lenders require high annual revenue for approval.
Lack of collateral
Banks often reject applications without tangible hard assets.
