Business Lending Connection: Terms and Conditions

Thank you for completing our questionnaire and submitting your personal information to Business Lending Connection (BLC). BLC is strictly a marketing lead generator and in no way guarantees that by completing our questionnaire, you will be matched with a Lender or receive a loan offer from a Lender in its network of U.S. based banks, private money lenders, hard money lenders, venture capital or angel capital companies.?? The data and other information you provide BLC is not, and is not treated as an application for a loan

This website does not constitute an offer or solicitation to lend. BLC will submit the information you provide to a lender in their network. It is a paid matching service, providing you access to multiple lenders with a wide array of financial products.?? You are responsible for a fee only if you are successfully matched to a participating Lender, and you proceed with that Lender???s underwriting requirements.

Providing your information on this website does not guarantee that you will be approved for a loan. We are NOT a lender.?? Once you complete our questionnaire, we will contact the participating lenders in our network and submit your profile in order to find you the best product offerings you may qualify for.?? Your loan terms will vary from lender to lender, and will also vary by which product you ultimately accept.?? Your repayment terms will be dictated by your actual loan agreement. Read your lender’s disclosures to make sure the product is appropriate for your needs. BLC does not guarantee acceptance into any particular program or specific term or condition with any lender, as approval standards are established and maintained solely by each individual lender.

BLC does not accept credit applications, make loans or credit decisions in connection with loans, nor does BLC issue any form of final loan commitment. BLC is not a lender and does not make loans or credit decisions in connection with loans. BLC does not endorse or recommend the products of any particular Lender, nor do they represent themselves as an agent of either you or any Lender. BLC’s services are strictly administrative. All loan inquiries submitted through this web site are NOT applications for credit. Rather, they are brief introductory questions to be matched with Lenders in order to receive conditional loan offers from those Lenders. You will have to complete a thorough application and go through a full Underwriting procedure with a Lender before they will extend you an unconditional offer. Any Lender you select may require you to pay an application or other fee to cover their administrative costs. The Lender will solely determine the amount of any such fee and should provide information to you regarding the refundability of any such fee.?? Please rely on your own judgment in deciding which available loan product, terms or Lender best suits your needs and financial means.

You understand that Lenders may retain your loan questionnaire and any other information provided by BLC or received by them in the processing of your loan request, whether or not you are qualified for a loan with them or if you ultimately receive a loan from them.?? To determine which Lenders you may be matched with, Lenders provide us criteria regarding the type of loan and the type of loan customer in which the Lender is interested.?? This matching process is strictly preliminary and may not be construed as a final loan commitment, which can only be made once the lender???s application process is complete.
