Business Financing options to help your business grow
Equipment Loans: Term loans for the purchase or refinancing of equipment, usually for terms of 5 to 7 years, depending on the economic life of the equipment.
Time Notes: A commercial time note can be used to obtain funds needed to supplement normal business operations, such as:
- Pay short term operating expenses
- Purchase materials or seasonal inventory
- Pay overhead costs associated with a new contract
- Pay annual taxes, insurance premiums, or other expenses
We will work with you to structure a 1-month to 24-month loan with repayment terms structured to match your source of funds.
Municipal Services: Let Skowhegan Savings customize a package for your municipality. Our rates and fees are competitive and our services are unbeatable. Our experienced team will work with you throughout the entire process including setup, onsite training and support.
Equipment Revolvers: This is a line of credit used to purchase or refinance equipment, with a pre-set repayment term and commitment. This type of credit works well in situations where equipment is regularly bought and sold as part of operations, such as a fleet of delivery vehicles where several are traded in every year.
Commercial Real Estate Loans: Can serve various purposes, including acquiring, revitalizing, expanding, developing, or even refinancing your properties designated for commercial use.
Commercial Construction Loans: When you are ready to build a new facility, put on a major addition, or make renovations, we are here to help. Funds are disbursed as work is completed and materials arrive on site. Typically, interest only is charged for up to one year during the construction period and the loans are for 15 to 20 years thereafter.
