When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

Eligible Pine Ridge-area tribal entrepreneurs seeking a Native lender and business coaching.

What to weigh carefully

Credit difficulties do not automatically disqualify an applicant; rebuilding credit or a cosigner may be required.
Confirm product-specific amount, security and pricing rather than treating the overall maximum as universal.

Questions before you accept an offer

Does my residence and business address meet the fifty-mile rule?
Which product and collateral fit my request?

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

These are options for a related financing need, not a ranking or a claim of equivalent eligibility or pricing.
