From paychecks to inventory to rent, business owners have a laundry list of costs they must incur, and sometimes, they need a little help. This is where business loans and lines of credit can be helpful. Whether your business requires a steady stream of cash flow, or a lump sum for a larger expense, these financial services can provide opportunities to expand your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before applying for a business line of credit or loan, it\u2019s important to understand your needs and options. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amerantbank.com\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.amerantbank.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Amerant<\/a> Business Banking experts, Luis Cure and Brian Guilford, have got you covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Loan vs Lines of Credit<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, it\u2019s important to understand the difference between a business loan and a line of credit. What are they and how are they different?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignright has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" data-id=\"199\" src=\"https:\/\/amerant-of-interest-qa-wp-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/2-1.jpg\" alt=\"Luis Cure, Business Banking Team Lead - Broward &amp; Palm Beach, Amerant Bank\" class=\"wp-image-199\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Luis Cure, Business Banking Team Lead &#8211; Broward &amp; Palm Beach, Amerant Bank<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Luis Cure, Amerant&#8217;s Business Banking Team Lead for Broward and Palm Beach markets, calls a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amerantbank.com\/business-loc\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.amerantbank.com\/business-loc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">business line of credit<\/a> \u201ca revolving credit line that can be used when a business needs access to capital multiple times over.\u201d Similar to how credit card payments work, a business line of credit can continually be accessed once paid off. However, it\u2019s important to note that business lines of credit don\u2019t work exactly the same as credit cards, as they offer much more competitive rates than credit cards typically do and are usually used for smaller purchases rather than larger expenses, which a line of credit could help you cover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amerantbank.com\/products\/business-loans\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.amerantbank.com\/products\/business-loans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">business loans<\/a> offer a different kind of flexibility for business owners. \u201cA loan is a structured credit facility that is set for a definite amount of time and is usually paid off in monthly principal and interest payments,\u201d says Cure. The difference here from a line of credit is that the loan will not replenish each month, making the loan a lump sum of capital you can access and pay back periodically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Understand Your Needs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Businesses vary greatly in size, scale, type and service, so not every business loan or line of credit is right for everyone. \u201cAmerant offers many different options for all kinds of businesses, so there\u2019s something for everyone,\u201d adds Cure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignright has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" data-id=\"198\" src=\"https:\/\/amerant-of-interest-qa-wp-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/1-1.jpg\" alt=\"Brian Guilford, Business Banking Relationship Manager, Amerant Bank\" class=\"wp-image-198\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Brian Guilford, Business Banking Relationship Manager, Amerant Bank<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Brian Guilford, Business Banking Relationship Manager at Amerant Bank, says step one is to meet with your relationship manager and assess your needs. What are your business goals? What are you trying to accomplish? Being able to answer those kinds of questions are essential in understanding what solution is right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA line of credit, for example, can provide businesses a solution they may need when times are uncertain, or when revenues or expenses are difficult to predict,\u201d says Guilford. \u201cHowever, you could simply just use one for working capital needs.\u201d A line of credit is typically very flexible, which is its greatest strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Loans can be a great resource for businesses that are growing rapidly. \u201cA loan would be ideally suited for a client who has outgrown a space that they rent, or if they\u2019re looking to purchase a property for that business.
