Why work with VestedIn?

VestedIn is a community lender, but being a source to procure loans is just a fraction of who VestedIn is. We’re in the community because we are dedicated to the community. We’re here to serve low-income neighborhoods that have historically been locked out of the financial system. VestedIn is a CDFI (Community Development Financial Institution) that offers an alternative to obtain the necessary capital to start a business, make improvements or expand a business through low interest business loans. Our financial programs include a minimum of 1.5 hours of free technical assistance and are here to guide you whether your loan is approved or denied. While applying for a loan through a bank is possible, we take a holistic approach to the lending process and don't solely rely on your credit. We are committed to cultivating long-term relationships and the creation of generational wealth.

We’re dedicated to partnering with your business and providing you with the resources to continue to build in the future.

What is the loan application process?

The applicant submits a completed on-line application to VestedIn for review, at which time a thorough credit analysis is performed. For applications that receive a positive credit evaluation, the loan is presented to VestedIn’s Loan Committee and/or the Board of Directors. Following loan approval, VestedIn issues a commitment letter to the applicant. Settlement of the loan may occur once the terms of the commitment letter are satisfied by the applicant.
