How it works

Church loans are special-purpose loans. Lenders look at giving history, membership trends, leadership stability and the building's value. We place church loans with lenders that specialize in ministries, and use bridge financing when timing matters.

Have ready: 2–3 years of financial statements, giving records, a budget and the board resolution authorizing the loan.
