Asset-based borrowing occurs when an business owner uses an asset that they own to obtain a loan. The asset can be either an individual property, such as the family home, or an company asset like a truck or piece of equipment.
The majority of banks, including the major banks, prefer to guarantee loans against an asset. If you have trouble paying back the loan then the asset might be transferred to the lender. In essence, it’s an opportunity to secure new financing using the value of what you already own.
For loans of up to $150,000, no asset security is required upfront to access the money however, we do require an individual guarantee. If you adhere to your loan obligations (as specified in your loan contract) Asset security will never be required. For loans that exceed $150K, generally there is the option of a personal guarantee and security in the form a charge over assets.
