Small Business Lenders in Memphis, Tennessee

Raising money in Memphis, Tennessee? If so, you'll want to talk to some of these small business lenders in Memphis.

If you are planning on applying for a small business loan and your business is based in Memphis, Tennessee, we've put together a list of local small business banks that you should contact.

As a prerequisite to reaching out to lenders for a loan, you will need to have a specific plan.

You need to be able to clearly explain your business, explain how much you want to borrow, define how the money will be used, and show how you plan to pay the loan back to the lender.

A well-defined business plan is an important prerequisite. If the capital is to for a company that is already doing business, you should also have financial statements covering the last three years. In addition, you should itemize what collateral you have available to guarantee the loan. Collateral is relevant because banks always want to be prepared for a worst-case scenario in which cash flow from the business does not meet your projections.

If the business has few assets, you will likely be asked to secure the business with your personal assets, such as the equity in your home. The banks will check on your personal credit history in any case, so hopefully you have good credit history -- you may want to get a copy of your credit history prior to meeting with the banker.

Many of the banks in our list are SBA lenders. Before meeting with the banker, you may want to get up to speed on SBA loans programs to see if you qualify. SBA 7(a) loans, SBA 504 loans and SBA disaster assistance loans may be available to you.

Without further adieu, here's our list of small business banks in Memphis.
