Business lending covers everything from working capital and equipment to SBA loans and lines of credit. Norman businesses across construction, healthcare, hospitality, and professional services use these products to grow, hire, and manage cash flow. ClearRate Funding connects you with lenders that fit your situation, and we don't get paid to push you toward one.
Loan Types
SBA Loans
The SBA 7(a) and 504 programs offer lower rates and longer terms than most alternatives. The tradeoff is time: expect 30 to 90 days from application to funding and more paperwork than other options.
Term Loans
A lump sum repaid over a fixed schedule, typically 1 to 5 years. Good for equipment, expansion, or a defined project with a clear return.
Lines of Credit
You draw what you need and pay interest only on what you use. Useful for businesses with uneven cash flow or recurring short-term needs.
Equipment Financing
The equipment itself serves as collateral, which makes approval easier for businesses that don't have years of financials. Rates vary based on equipment type and your credit profile.
Merchant Cash Advance (MCA)
An MCA gives you capital fast in exchange for a percentage of future revenue. It's the most expensive option on this list. Factor rates typically translate to an APR well above 40%. It's a short-term tool, not a long-term solution, and you should know that before you apply.
Realistic Qualification Ranges
Most lenders in our network want to see at least $15,000 in monthly revenue, 6 or more months in business, and a credit score above 550 for alternative products. SBA and term loans typically require 2 years in business and a 650+ score. These are general thresholds, not guarantees of approval.
Norman businesses in high-growth corridors are actively borrowing to meet demand. If your industry is expanding, lenders notice.
