We gather the documentation underwriters require, including three years of business tax returns, interim profit-and-loss statements, a current balance sheet, and personal financial statements from owners holding 20 percent or more equity. For Lakeside City businesses, we explain why lenders ask for a business-use narrative and how to frame your request so it aligns with SBA guidelines. Our role as a broker means we present your complete file to multiple lenders, compare their structures, and walk you through each step until funding closes.
