| Greetings: Here is your latest issue of BM$ Success Newsletter – the companion newsletter to the "Business-Money-Source" website. 5 Reasons Commercial Loans And Large Project Loans Are Not Funded (Part 2 of 5)Reason No. 2: Weak Financial Statement and Lack of Sufficient Collateral to Secure the LoanLet’s begin Part 2 with a small but poignant dose of reality: No lender or investor is going to fund your business or project without knowing that their money is secured by collateral that is equal to or preferably exceeds the value of the loan.This seems like stating the obvious, but it is surprising how many loan seekers will approach a funding consultant such as Business Money Source and request a business loan of $100,000 or more with nothing to offer as collateral to secure the loan! A more extreme example is to have someone request $5 million or more to fund a project and their net worth is a few thousand dollars! Neither of the loan requests described here would be funded. Loan Seekers Must Learn to See Their loan Proposal From The Lenders PerspectivePrivate lenders and investors do not fund projects because they are nice people, though some are, or because they particularly care about you, the loan seeker. Lenders and investors make loans to receive a return on investment (ROI). That means that the funding source expects to get their money back plus a profit, the ROI. The ROI may be in the form of interest or an ownership share of your business or a combination of the two. What is Net Worth?It is your responsibility as the loan applicant to convince and prove to the lender that the loan will be repaid as agreed upon. Your business Financial Statement provides the information that the funding source uses to determine your ability to carry the debt service.Your business Financial Statement shows a list of your assets (valuable property that you own) and a list of your liabilities (debts that you or your business owe). You net worth is calculated by subtracting the total amount of liabilities from the total amount of assets. The funding source will look very critically at both your personal net worth and business net worth. Generally, the higher your net worth the larger amount of financing that your business may qualify for. Other information in your financial statement will be addressed in future issues. Suffice it to say for now, that your business financial statement should demonstrate to the funding source that you are financially responsible and able to repay the loan if the business or project fails. One word of caution: When preparing the Financial Statement be as accurate as possible. In fact, there can be legal complications if you knowingly submit false information to a lender for the purpose of securing funding. The lender will learn the truth about your financial strength of your business when due diligence is performed on your loan proposal. So it is best to be open and forthcoming at the beginning of your loan application.
