Straight answers to what St. Paul owners ask most, from a local broker.

Restaurant loan amounts typically range from $50,000 for equipment or modest renovations up to $1 million or more for full build-outs or multi-location expansions. Your sales volume, lease strength, and concept viability drive the maximum amount lenders will offer.

Funding timelines vary by loan type. Working capital or equipment financing can close in two to four weeks, while larger build-out projects requiring permits and contractor bids may take six to eight weeks from application to funded disbursement.

Credit standards differ across our lender network. Many prioritize monthly sales, table turnover, and customer reviews over personal credit scores, so a score in the low to mid-600s with consistent revenue often qualifies for competitive programs.

Collateral typically includes the equipment purchased or a blanket lien on restaurant assets like furniture, fixtures, and inventory. Larger loans for build-outs or acquisitions may also require a personal guarantee, especially for newer or single-location concepts.

Gather recent profit and loss statements, point-of-sale sales reports for the past six to twelve months, your lease agreement, tax returns, and a brief plan outlining how you'll use the funds. We help you organize everything before lender submission.
