How to Understand Repayment Terms for Business Loans Arizona

When trying to obtain business loans Arizona and decipher the sometimes complicated jargon in the agreement, it’s critical to know what is of expected of you in terms of paying back the loan. Level 4 Funding breaks it down.

You need to start with a clear reality about what it’s going to take to get a loan approved — and then be able to meet the repayment term schedule. Terms for business loans Arizona are totally different than home mortgage payments, for example, that you might have for 30 years. These loans at loan-term can range from five to 20 years, give or take, and at short-term, between three and six months to three years. However, the latter will also include higher interest rates.

The short-term business loans Arizona are designed for business owners that need cash and they need it now. This could be for a number of reasons (need to make payroll, want to purchase a building, need to do some important renovations or upgrades to pass inspections) — all of which are time sensitive. These loans can be approved and turned around with cash in hand for the borrower within as little as 48 hours, give or take. However, ultimately, these loans can be more difficult to pay off because of the shorter repayment time allotment plus the additional high interest rates.

With long-term business loans Arizona, the time frame for repayment stretches over a much longer course of time, and they are amortized loans, which means that the loan needs to be paid in fixed installments through the duration of the payment terms. This is similar to how homeowners pay their mortgage — with principle and interest all together. But sometimes there is a balloon payment required at the end of the terms, meaning the borrower much pay the remainder of the loan back in one large sum, which can be difficult as well.

Be sure you are aware of any penalties.

While you would think that paying your loan back early would be rewarded, it can actually work against you. Some loan agreements charge a penalty for early payment (likely because they would like to keep receiving that high interest through the term of the agreement).
