SUMMARY:How to Get Lender Ready
DESCRIPTION:Looking for funding and approaching lenders can be intimidating. Before you start looking for money do you know if you are lender ready? Or do you know if you meet a lender’s requirements (e.g. credit score\, collateral\, financials\, etc.)? There are many resources available and it can be confusing. Today’s program will help you with that confusion by providing an overview of lending options\, how to put that funding request together and assist you in becoming lender ready. \nThis workshop is led by SBDC Business Analyst\, Marcus Browne. \nLocation: \nParadise Valley Community College\nEntrepreneurship Education Center\nBuilding K\, Room 117\n18401 N 32nd Street\nPhoenix\, AZ  85032 \nThe campus is located on the SE corner of Union Hills and 32nd Street. Official visitor parking on the east side of 32nd Street (just West of Building J). Alternatively\, people can park in the open parking area on the north side of campus just below Bell. I have attached a campus parking map below.
