FAQs

 

1. What does a loan broker do?
A loan broker acts as a middleman between you and multiple lenders. We assess your financial situation, compare loan options from our network of lenders, and help you find the best loan for your needs – all without you having to shop around yourself.

2. Is using a loan broker free?
Some brokers charge a fee for their services, while others are paid by the lender. At Easy Business Loan, we are transparent about any fees upfront. You will never be surprised by hidden charges.

3. Do I need good credit to get a loan?
Not necessarily. Many lenders we work with consider applicants with fair or even poor credit. Your chances may depend on the loan type, amount, and your overall financial situation. A broker can help match you with lenders who are more likely to approve you.

4. How long does it take to get approved?
Approval times vary, but most applicants receive a decision within 24 to 48 hours after submitting their application. Funding can take an additional 1 to 5 business days depending on the lender.

5. What documents do I need to apply?
Common requirements include:

  • Valid ID (passport or driver’s license)
  • Proof of income (pay stubs or bank statements)
  • Proof of address (utility bill)
  • Bank account details
    For business loans, you may also need business registration documents and bank statements.

6. Can I get a loan if I am self-employed?
Yes. Many lenders work with self-employed applicants. You may need to provide additional documentation such as tax returns or business bank statements.

7. How much can I borrow?
Loan amounts vary by lender and loan type. Personal loans typically range from $1,000 to $50,000. Business loans can go from $5,000 to $500,000 or more, depending on your revenue and credit profile.

8. Will applying affect my credit score?
A soft credit check may be used initially to match you with lenders, which does not affect your score. However, once you proceed with a specific lender, they will likely perform a hard credit check, which may have a small temporary impact.

9. Can I pay off my loan early?
This depends on the lender. Some allow early repayment without penalties, while others may charge a small prepayment fee. We recommend reviewing your loan agreement carefully before signing.

10. Why should I use a broker instead of applying directly to a bank?
A broker saves you time and effort. Instead of applying to multiple banks yourself and getting rejected, a broker does the legwork for you. We know which lenders are more likely to approve your specific profile, and we often have access to better rates and terms.

11. What is the difference between secured and unsecured loans?
A secured loan requires collateral (like property or equipment), which the lender can take if you fail to repay. An unsecured loan does not require collateral but may have higher interest rates.
