The length of time to be approved depends on the amount you wish to borrow and the value of the asset being used as collateral. For example, a loan for commercial real estate could take 30 - 60 days compared to a week or less for business equipment. The easiest way to find out how long your approval will take, and prevent unnecessary delays, is to talk to one of the FV Vantage business funding experts.
