Asset-based borrowing occurs when the company owner utilises an asset they own to obtain the funds for a loan. The asset can be either an individual property, such as the family home, or it could be a company asset like a truck or piece of equipment.
The majority of lending institutions, even the largest banks, are inclined to secure loans against assets. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, the asset might be transferred to the lender. In essence, it is means of securing additional financing using the worth of the asset you already own.
For loans that exceed $150,000, it is not necessary to secure assets in advance to gain access to the funds but we do require the personal guarantee. As long as you follow your loan commitments (as stated in your loan contract document), asset security is not required. For loans over $150K generally there is a personal ensure and security in the form the charge of assets.
