Benefits of Line of Credit

3 Ways a Line of Credit can Benefit your Business

August 8, 2018
The 3 benefits a Line of Credit can bring your business. ① It's a security blanket for your business. Your line of credit is always there when you need extra cash.

Safer Than Online Lenders

Don’t be Fooled by Online Lenders

June 27, 2017
A Safer Option than Online Lenders. We know that business owners can get in a pinch financially and feel they need to resort to online lenders for fast cash. Many of these online lenders, such as a Merchant Cash Advance (MCA), offer quick funding with little paperwork, but this decision can have long term effects on your finances. These online lending structures may be based on your business's future sales, making it a higher risk funding option with a greater liability on your balance sheet. Many of these online options also have very high interest rates, forcing you into a

Business Grow to Death

Your Business May Be at Risk of Growing to Death

October 26, 2016
Growth is usually viewed as a positive step for business owners, but if not managed properly, growth could be the death of your business. If your business grows too fast, or grows the wrong way, you can actually grow yourself out of business. Along with growth comes the costs of additional staff, system development, and changes in operations. Without access to working capital, your business won't be able to support these essential changes. By tapping into your business's Accounts Receivable, or outstanding invoices, you can free up existing capital and have access to the immediate cash flow needed for growth.

Collateral

Types of Collateral

August 30, 2016
You may have business collateral and not even realize it... When looking for a source of capital, there are several factors your lender may take into consideration. For instance, traditional lenders will first look at your company's credit history, balance sheet strength, and years in business when underwriting a loan. This way of thinking leads to many businesses being turned down and not receiving the funding they need. SouthStar Capital takes a non-traditional approach and uses your business's assets, or collateral, to make our funding decision. In-turn we are able advance your business capital by using your collateral as leverage.

Asset Based Lending versus Bank Lending

Asset Based Lending vs Bank Financing

April 11, 2016
Asset-based lines of credit refer to loans secured by a wide variety of assets such as accounts receivable, equipment, and inventory. Asset-based lenders rely on the value of the underlying collateral to minimize the loan's credit risk. Asset-based lenders are sometimes referred to as Secured Lenders. The primary difference between asset-based lending and traditional bank lending is what the lender looks to when underwriting a loan. A traditional lender will look first to the cash flow then to collateral. An asset-based lender looks to collateral first. Since traditional lenders underwrite cash flow as their primary repayment source, they typically require

Seasonal Slump Business

Keep your Company’s Cash Flowing through a Seasonal Slump

February 11, 2016
If you are a business owner, it is very likely that your business has experienced a sales slump at some point in its lifetime. Some of these slumps may even be seasonal and have a predictable “slow” time of year.

By using the assets your company already possesses, you are able to create working capital for your business to thrive and grow. SouthStar Capital offers the alternative financing solution of Asset Based Lending. Where

January 27, 2014
SouthStar Capital prides itself on the relationships it has created over the years with referral partners. We have noticed that there are often two types of relationships that evolve.
