FOR FUNERAL HOMES

Choosing the Best Funeral Home Loan Program

Operating a funeral home is no easy task, and obtaining traditional financing can be especially challenging for funeral home owners, cremation professionals, and those in the death care industry. The COVID-19 pandemic, including the recent Omicron variant, has caused an unprecedented number of deaths nationwide, which, combined with economic uncertainty, has made banks more hesitant to lend. On the other hand, your business may be seeing an unexpected increase in demand for services, requiring funding to support its growth.

The Best Business Loans for Funeral Homes

Long-Term Business Loans for Funeral Homes

Long-term loans are always the most desirable as they offer the longest repayment terms, typically from 2 to 7 years. Long-term loans are a lump sum provided upfront with an interest rate starting at 7%, with monthly payments over a fixed repayment period.

These loans require high credit standards for established funeral home businesses with at least two years in business in the funeral home industry and a significant amount of paperwork for approval.

Benefits:

Low interest rates starting at 7%
Term loans from 2 to 7 years to repay
Accommodates a larger loan amount
Monthly payments

Merchant Cash Advance for Funeral Homes

Merchant cash advances (also now as Future Receivables Purchase and Sale Agreements) provide an upfront lump sum of money in exchange for a fixed percentage of the businesses’ future sales. Repayment is typically made daily or weekly.

Either ACH payments auto deducted from a business’s bank account, or the percentage is taken out of future credit card sales until the payback obligation is met. Terms are expressed as a future sale, so you are given a fixed amount and then responsible for paying back a more significant amount through a fixed percentage of future sales. The difference between the amount given and the amount paid back to complete the agreement is your fixed cost.

The estimated time to repay is typically 6 to 18 months, but there are no term limits as the repayment is based on future sales, and this product is not considered a term loan.

Benefits of Merchant Cash Advances for Funeral Homes:

Flexible repayment terms attached to future sales
Excellent to poor credit score considered
Provides funds to owners with sub-prime credit
Limited documentation required

Short Term Small Business Loan for Funeral Homes

Short-term loans are term loans that provide a fixed amount of money, repaid over terms of 6 to 18 months. When approved, you get a fixed amount for a set payback amount. The difference between is the cost, with a fixed payment auto-deducted from your bank account monthly, bi-weekly, weekly, or in some cases daily out of the bank account.

Limited paperwork is required, with only a 1-page application and bank statements. The credit requirements for a short-term loan are more lenient than that of banks or traditional term loans due to the reduced risk.

Benefits for Short Term Business Loans:

Excellent to poor credit score considered
Loan amount as little as $10,000 up to $500,000
Repayment terms are 6 to 18 months to repay
Lower monthly or annual revenue requirements than those of traditional loans
Fast and simple application process with the same day to next day financing
Limited documentation required

Business Line of Credit for Funeral Homes

A business line of credit is a small business financing option that offers a flexible feature that a short-term loan does not. It works like a credit card in that it is a revolving credit line and allows you to draw money out and then repay at any time with you only paying principal and interest on your outstanding balance.

Lines of credit have a credit limit that you cannot exceed and is set at the time of consummation. Business lines of credit are not considered term loans but revolving lines of credit.

Highlights of a Line of Credit:

Ability to draw money at any time from lines of credit
Allows borrowers to spend the money, repay it, and spend it again
Principal and interest rates starting at 5% for lines of credit
Lower costs and fees than most other financing products
