- Your personal credit report: Your lender may have some follow-up questions pertaining to your personal credit report. Be prepared to explain the contents of your credit history.
- Business plan and financial projections: The lender will want to see what your business is all about, what your goals are for your business, and how you will be able to successfully achieve these goals. Additionally, be prepared to disclose the members of your management team and your business model. The lender will also want to see that you will eventually be able to pay back the loan in full.
