Franchise Loan

Financing utilized to purchase or expand a franchise. Franchise opportunities provide entrepreneurs with the opportunity to start a new business enterprise while taking advantage of the resources and name recognition of an established company. Franchises are available in a wide range of fields, including restaurants, retail establishments and personal service providers. Medical clinics can also be franchised in some areas of the U.S. and are one of the fastest growing elements of the franchise market. Each of these business opportunities offers a way to break into a new industry or line of work without the risk of an unknown start-up, making franchise purchases a popular choice for many investors.

Identifying and obtaining the right franchise loan can be challenging, especially for newcomers to the industry or the entrepreneurial field. Franchise lenders typically consider a number of factors when evaluating the viability of a loan for franchise purchase. One factor in the franchise lending decision is the name recognition of the parent company; for instance, obtaining financing for the purchase of a well-known national restaurant chain is more likely to prove successful than the same process performed to fund a small regional franchise purchase. Additionally, the credit histories and finances of those involved in the purchase will be considered by the franchise lending institution.

Collateral is also an important consideration when applying for loans for franchises; real estate is most often used to secure these loans, but any item of value may be used if both parties agree to the transaction.
