When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

  • Northeast Indiana entrepreneurs seeking smaller financing and business-skills support.

What to weigh carefully

  • The checklist requests a bank-denial statement for amounts above $20,000 and business collateral; confirm requirements for the selected product.
  • Other legal-standing and applicant conditions apply.

Questions before you accept an offer

  1. Is my county covered by this loan fund?
  2. What collateral, guarantees and training commitments are required?

Ask for written terms. Compare net cash received, total repayment, fees, payment timing and early-payoff costs for the same financing need.

Prepare your comparison

Use the same questions and figures for each offer you receive.

Alternatives to research
