An asset-based loan is when an company owner borrows from the assets they have to get the loan. The asset could be an asset belonging to the personal, like the family home, or a business property like a truck or other piece of machinery.
The majority of lending institutions, even the banks with the biggest size, prefer to secure loans against an asset. If you’re having trouble paying back the loan, the asset could be transferred to the lender. In essence it’s means of securing new financing using the value of what you already own.
For loans that exceed $150,000, it is not necessary to secure assets in advance to gain access to the funds, however we do require a personal guarantee. As long as you follow your loan commitments (as stated in the loan contract), asset security will never be needed. For loans that exceed $150K, generally, you can get the option of a personal guarantee and security in the form of an asset charge.
