Arranging Business Loans Across Coventry & West Midlands
The Coventry business community is well served on paper, less so in practice — many SMEs find the big banks slow and the specialist market opaque. We sit between the two and pick the lender most likely to engage with a West Midlands trading business.
"Floyd's experience shows. He matched us with the right lender first time and held our hand through completion. We'd been quoted twice as long elsewhere."

Coventry FAQs
Common questions about business loans in Coventry
Will lenders care about my sector?+
Yes — some sectors (hospitality, construction, transport) attract more cautious underwriting. We approach lenders most comfortable with your sector to avoid wasted applications.
How transparent are the fees?+
Fully — we set out broker fee, lender fee, legal cost estimates and rate in writing before you commit. No surprises.
How is affordability calculated?+
Most lenders model EBITDA against debt service — typically wanting 1.25–1.5x cover. We'll model it for you before applying so you know where you stand.
Are loans available for Coventry businesses with recent dips in profit?+
Yes — many lenders look past one weak year if the trend has corrected or the cause is explainable. We'll position accordingly.
Will my accounts be strong enough?+
Lenders typically want two years of accounts showing affordability, but newer businesses and recovering businesses still have options through specialist funders. We'll be candid about likelihood up front.
How does a merchant cash advance differ from a loan?+
MCAs are repaid as a percentage of card takings, not fixed monthly payments. Better for seasonal Coventry businesses; usually more expensive per pound borrowed than a term loan.
