Small Business Loans

Simple. Fast. Convenient.

With a small business loan, you will receive a lump sum of working capital to use for your business. This is a hassle-free financing option where a fixed payment amount will be automatically deducted from your business bank account every day, week, or month. You can get a small business loan as small as $5,000 or as large as $500,000 and receive funding in as little as 24 hours.

Business Acquisitions

If you’re looking for a loan to buy a business, this one is tailor-made for you.
Campaign creators e6n7uoenyba unsplash

Business Acquisitions (SBA)
If you’re looking for a loan to buy a business, this one is tailor-made for you.

Best Financing For Business Acquisitions
For nearly 30 years, Diamond Financial (Franchise Lenders) has been financing Business acquisitions (resales) nationwide with a high success rate on loan sizes from $150K – $5 million (SBA), $750K – $10 million+ (FranBank Conventional non -SBA) and $25K – $150K (FAST Plan – Alternative lending programs) such as UBLOC, Consumer Business Loan, Diamond Retirement Funding and LeverageLine.

At times, it requires a combination of the above, including a funding strategy to finance the down payment which is required for SBA and FranBank.  Our experience with loan packaging and diversity of lending programs and Banks we work with continue to make us a leading source in the industry with a top reputation.  You need a loan specialist to maximize your chance of approval. It is simply too risky to do it on your own.  Banks are inconsistent and are always changing their loan criteria, loan sizes, preferred industries, and success rates.  Most banks look for reasons to not finance a business purchase. Our lenders are mainly “Cash Flow” oriented and look for ways to get your loan request approved and funded!

      Consumer Business Loan

      The Term Loan program is either an add-on to, or in lieu of, the UBF program when the applicant meets eligibility and is agreeable to either a portion – or all – of their funding supplied in the form of cash term loans with a fixed monthly re-payment.
      Computer gded9be12d 1920

      Criteria Summary

      Low Documentation
      Just need proof of identity and proof of income. If W-2 employee, will need last two pay stubs. If self employed, will need most recent business and personal tax returns. Banks will go by Adjusted Gross Income.

      Unsecured
      This program is completely non-collateralized, but every application still requires the personal guarantee of the applicant.


      Type Of Funding
      The funds can be used for business purposes but this program is based entirely on consumer financing consisting of mostly Term Loans, but sometimes include Lines of Credit (with check writing capability). All accounts will report on personal credit.


      Interest Rates
      The APR’s (Annual Percentage Rates) on the loans are between 7%-24% depending on applicant’s creditworthiness and the selected term (applicant will be presented with an offer of 3, 5, or 7 year terms from which to choose).

       
      Contract ga4038e455 1920

      Criteria Summary

        Interest Rates
        The APR’s (Annual Percentage Rates) on the loans are between 7%-24% depending on applicant’s creditworthiness and the selected term (applicant will be presented with an offer of 3, 5, or 7 year terms from which to choose).

        Pre-Qualifying
        Applicant needs at least a 650 FICO and over $35,000 in annual income (Adjusted Gross Income), but an actual pre-qualification will depend on Debt-to-Income ratio. *650+ FICO and $35k+ income does not guarantee eligibility.

        Timing
        The process takes about 3-5 weeks, plus or minus, depending on the situation.

        Success Fee
        There are no upfront nor any recurring fees. Once the funding has been established, the company is due its Success Fee, which is a percentage of the total aggregated funding. The Success Fee can be conveniently paid with proceeds from the new funding.

        Soft Credit Pull
        If the applicant doesn’t have an account with a credit monitoring website where they can share their report with us, we can run credit without a hard inquiry.

          Finance It Your Way. Put Your Portfolio To Work. Twice.

          You’ve probably been through the standard financing process before. You updated your personal financial statement, gathered up five years of tax returns, bank statements and whatever else the banker required. You filled out all the forms, went to the interview, then prayed for good news.
          We don’t finance that way; we offer industry leading LeverageLine simplicity instead. We finance using your stocks, bonds, or other securities serving as collateral that stay in your own account – and nobody else’s.

          Your LeverageLine financing allows you to put two asset classes to work, not just one. Keep your securities growing for you while you access the lowest interest rates, highest loan-to-value and quickest delivery in the market today to fund your business investment.

          But There's More. Much More.
          Let’s start with paperwork and qualifying. Your bank will typically ask for evidence of every asset you own as well as your credit report and tax records. That can spell delays, uncertainty, high costs, and lost opportunities. Your transaction is reported to credit bureaus. Your banker decides which investments are “prudent” when determining their offer.

          Again, not so with LeverageLine. Here’s what you need to qualify for up to 95% loan-to-value at rates below the best mortgages: Grab a copy of your brokerage statement and apply via a simple, one-page, secure online application. That’s it. You’re approved.

          Where’s the catch?
          Sorry. No catch.

            Is Diamond Retirement Fund Legal?

              Many business owners unfamiliar with the DRF program are interested to learn about its legality and history. Here is a brief history of the program and some of the most frequently asked questions.

              Why is DRF legal?
              In short, retirement law specifically allows these transactions, as long as you follow the rules. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (or ERISA) is a federal law that governs retirement accounts. It has specific guidelines which allow businesses to sell their company stock to employee retirement accounts in exchange for cash. As long as your business abides by these requirements, the DRF is legal.

              Why can't I use my self-directed IRA?
              You cannot work at a business in which your IRA invests. If you have any responsibility of an officer or director, you become a “disqualified person.” An IRA does not meet the requirements of an eligible individual account plan.

              Acquisition and Expansion Financing for Franchise and Non-Franchise Businesses. FranBank is a preferred lending solution to many franchise systems offering capital readiness programs and capital procurement.
              Business g307bc5545 1920

              Providing You With The Best Franchise Financing Solution Is Our Goal

              FranBank is a specialty financing program designed for franchisees of approved franchise brands and for independent, non-franchise businesses. Our network of conventional bank partners provides an alternative to current traditional conservative and time consuming lenders.
              Qualified candidates are offered capital finance for their franchise and business acquisition or expansion requirements, at or below conventional loan rates. Closings can occur within 45 days on an expedited basis.
              The benefit of FranBank is, through our detailed modeling, our ability to collateralize the cash flow of your existing and that of the target business. This generally allows for much lower cash injection (down payment) than would otherwise be required – something that expanding businesses find very attractive.
