When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

  • Southern or Eastern Kentucky owners seeking a coordinated development-financing package.

What to weigh carefully

  • The linked application is dated 2023; request current forms and eligibility before submission.
  • Prepare documents first because the site says its online application cannot save progress.

Questions before you accept an offer

  1. Which funding source and geographic rules apply to my project?
  2. What rate, fees, maturity and collateral would the package require?

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.
