Need a Small Business Loan? We Used Fundera.
Earlier this year, Kelly and I decided to apply for a Small Business Administration (SBA) loan. Seeking funding from the government can often be a long and tedious process. We decided to use a third party to help us this time, and we are glad we chose Fundera.
The process was smooth and easy
The whole experience with Fundera was smooth and easy from start to finish. I first filled out a simple online application where I gave them some basic information about our company and why we needed the loan. Fundera followed up with a phone call to get more information. Their response was quick too; they called me about a day after I submitted the application!
After our discussion, Fundera had a good idea of who we were as a company and how we could use an SBA loan. Fundera then began shopping our information out to different lenders on our behalf. Now, as some of you may know, SBA loans are secured by the Federal Government, but they are loaned by individual banks. Working with Fundera cut out the work of having to find the right bank. They did the work for us!
Fundera’s online checklist saved a lot of time.
Once Fundera found a bank that was interested and a good fit for us, they created an online portal where we would upload all the documents related to the loan. Their portal created a checklist of tasks to complete and documents to upload, making it incredibly easy to understand what needed to be done. As we all know, there’s always a long list of things to do when you’re securing government funding, but Fundera made it easy to understand.
Overall, Fundera made the whole process efficient and smooth. They were responsive and helpful every step of the way, and even now that our loan is secured, Fundera checks in to see if they can help with anything. They are a great company with wonderful customer service. If you’re looking for an SBA loan, consider using Fundera to help you through the process.
