Timely information on small business financing needs, decisions and outcomes is critical to understanding and fostering the sector’s health and growth. To provide these insights to policymakers, researchers and service providers, the Small Business Credit Survey is a national collaboration among the 12 Reserve Banks of the Federal Reserve System.

In 2016, it yielded 10,303 responses from small businesses with employees, or employer firms, located in 50 states and the District of Columbia. Results from the 2016 survey showed that while many employer small businesses were profitable and optimistic in 2016, a significant majority faced financial challenges, experienced funding gaps and relied on personal finances. 1 For revenue and employment growth, the index is the share reporting positive growth minus the share reporting negative growth. For profitability, it's the share profitable minus the share not-profitable.

If you’re considering doing business with a company, you should learn about that company's credit risk. In order to do that (or see the credit risk of your own company), you’ll need to purchase a business credit report. Like consumer credit reports, business credit reports are compiled by three different credit bureaus and they give numerical scores to estimate risk. Unlike consumer credit reports, the scores in a business credit report are not standardized, free, or compiled by the same credit bureaus as compile consumer credit reports. Each of the business credit reporting agencies measures credit risk and creditworthiness in slightly different ways, and they each have different price points.

Hey guys and gals, and thanks again for signing up for the free mini-course! I sure hope that you will gain as much out of it as I'm putting into it! First of all let's not waste any time! This is a huge thing in the Real Estate business, and the great thing is that it doesn't matter if you've got it or not! You can successfully invest in Real Estate if you have absolutely NO CREDIT whatsoever! I didn't have great credit when I started investing, and when I really started the ball rolling, I had gone Bankrupt!

So, if you've not yet gone Bankrupt, then you're one step ahead of where I was! So, your first step will be to find out EXACTLY where you are! You do this by obtaining a credit report. Some of you probably already have this. You definitely want to make sure everything that's on the report is true, if it's not, then you need to go about disputing it to get it corrected. Now, if you've got decent credit, you want to see about upping your credit lines a bit.

So make sure that you use this ONLY for your Real Estate Investing, otherwise, you'll end up in a worse position then you are in now. There are a couple of options that I recommend in doing this. In MY opinion, the best will be to get a Line of Credit on your house, if you've got equity available in your home. The reason for opening up the lines of credit is that it's much easier to buy homes if you have quick access to cash.
