All businesses require capital to support its ongoing operations. Often the assets of a company are insufficient or cannot be used to collateralize a loan. In these cases, unsecured capital is used to meet the demands of the business. Properly structured, the cost of unsecured capital today is quite good typically as low as 3 - 7% above prime and is able to be used completely as the business sees fit.


What is Unsecured Capital?

Unsecured capital lending is a business loan or line of credit that is not secured by business or personal assets. Unlike traditional banks financing, unsecured financing does not require clients to secure the financing by placing a lien on collateral. Unsecured Lines of Credit are based on the borrowers good credit history not their current asset position. Cash Flow Unsecured loans are based on the borrowers cash flow and not their current asset position.


What is the difference between an unsecured loan and an unsecured line of credit?

An unsecured loan has a set time period for repayment. An unsecured line of credit can be paid off at your pace and can be used over and over. Tree Top offers both programs.


Do I need any collateral?

No, This type of loan/line does not require any collateral to provide you the capital you need for your business.


Do I need to supply Tax Returns, W2 or financial information?

  • No bankruptcies or foreclosures
  • No late payments for 2 years
  • 8 - 10 year minimum credit history (3 - 4 terms loans (car loans and mortgages), and 3- 4credit cards with 10K + limits ideal)

  • Corporate entity with an Employer ID number (EIN#)

  • Loan amount up to 8 to 10 percent of your business's annual revenue

If I don't meet the criteria, can I find a co-signer?

Yes, we accept co-signers. If you have a co-signer that meets the requirements our team will help you take the steps so that you are able to use them to acquire capital for your business. Additionally, if you do not immediately qualify, our experts will coach you on increasing your personal and business credit worthiness, as well as provide reputable third party resources that can assist you in becoming a qualified candidate for our products.


I have great credit, why shouldn't I just go to my bank to get a credit line?

If you are in the 1% of the population that can obtain funding from a bank, we suggest you do so. However there are a couple of facts you may wish to consider (1) The banks will typically require security ie collateral in the form of deposits, real estate etc... You may not wish to encumber your assets (2) The amount the banks will give businesses is typically a fraction of the lines that we can establish (3) The banks have a tendency to close down your line without notice when their lending parameters change or the bank credit portfolio is audited (4) Most lenders report business credit lines to the personal credit bureaus. This means that when you draw on the balance of the line, your personal credit can drop anywhere from 20-100 points overnight.
We have contacts with hundreds of lenders, each with unique lending trends, allowing us to optimize your financing mix so that you receive the most capital, with the lowest interest rate, as quickly as possible. We never require collateral and our lines do not report to the personal credit bureaus. Many banks refer their best clients to us.


Does it cost anything to apply?

No, there is no charge to apply. Tree Top is an entirely success based firm. We do not charge any fees until we are successful at providing our clients unsecured funding.
