Purchase a Business

Purchasing a business typically requires financing referred to as an acquisition loan. This capital is given to a company to purchase a specific asset, to acquire another business, or for other reasons that are laid out before the loan is granted. Typically, a company can only use an acquisition loan for a short window of time and only for the agreed-upon purpose.

 

Purpose of a Business Acquisition Loan

Use a business acquisition loan to buy a business. This loan type will help you purchase an existing business or franchise, which means you can take advantage of that stellar business opportunity even if you don’t have the capital to purchase it outright.

​

Benefits of a Business Acquisition Loan

If you’re looking for a loan to buy a business, this one is tailor-made for you. A business acquisition loan helps you zero in on the benefits of purchasing an existing business or franchise rather than going the startup route—all with terms and rates specifically designed to meet your needs.

​

Why Buy a Business?

The startup phase of any business can be pretty backbreaking. Skipping to the “established business” phase can save you a headache and give you a leg up in small business. Buying an existing business or franchise enables you to hit the ground running and leverage existing resources to accelerate your growth—which often means you can go further, faster.

​

Cost of Buying a Business

Business acquisition loan amounts range from $50,000 all the way up to $5 billion.

 

Business Acquisition Loan Process

For most small business loans, a lender will review factors like your credit history, time in business, and revenue to determine if you qualify. If you’re buying a business or franchise, your lender will look at slightly different criteria to ensure that you’re investing in a viable business, and in turn, will be able to repay the loan.
