Asset-based borrowing is when a business owner borrows from an asset they own to secure the funding. The asset could be an individual property, such as the family home or an business property like a truck as well as a piece of machine.
The majority of lenders, including the banks with the biggest size, prefer to guarantee loans against assets. If you are having difficulty paying back the loan, then the asset could be offered for sale by the lender. In essence it is means of securing new funding making use of the value of what you already own.
Up to $150,000 in loans no asset security is required upfront to access the money, however we do need the personal guarantee. So long as you comply with the loan terms (as detailed in your loan contract document) the security of assets is not required. For loans of over $150K generally there is a personal ensure and security in the form a charge over assets.
