One in ten small business owners use their home to borrow more

Wednesday, January 11, 2012 4:42:00 PM

Over the past year more than one in ten (12%) of small business owners in the UK have had to put their own homes on the line as a guarantee for a loan to continue doing business in 2011.

This is according to new research from borro the personal asset lender.  The survey of 300 owners and directors of small businesses also showed that a further third of small business owners (33%) would consider using their home as a guarantee if they couldn't get any other kind of finance to help with issues such as cash flow problems, late customer payments, tax bills and staff wages.

With bank confidence still at an all-time low small business owners have had to turn to their personal funds to boost their businesses.  The survey found that over half (57%) of small business owners have used their personal funds to inject capital into their business and 17% have asked friends and family for additional funds.

Borro are finding that small business ownersa re looking further afield to get the funding they need.  A quarter (26%) said they have used or would consider using their personal assets such as cars, jewellry, antiques etc. to secure a loan for their business.

That was some day! (and Hardy Amies- who I have only ever heard of- a spy? That’s quite…something). Am most fascinated by the prom dress book (couldn’t help observing, the dresses look almost like bridesmaid dresses) and the band, what a brilliant -sounding find – I’m off to see if they have a Myspace now (hope they do).

I posted this over at “Beat the Press” and thought I’d crosspost it here as well. I think the biggest loser in all of this is Islam and The Koran itself. Despite the absurdity of the situation, I thought media could’ve turned this into a teachable moment. How many Americans really know what Islam is all about? How many Americans have really read The Koran? How many Americans know there is practically an entire chapter in the Koran devoted to the Virgin Mary? And the most obvious question …. how many Americans have been to a mosque? I know these are basic questions. But instead of passing along what this nitwit is saying, the media could’ve put the issue itself into some kind of meaningful context that would serve the public interest. Instead the media fed the sensationalism beast and consumers of information lost in all of this.

most often in private) is that “bankers walk backward”. It was a surprise if prospective lenders asked for projections but rather dwelled on past financials. Seems to me you need historical perspective with primary focus on where the business is headed.

Great video and helpful information. Also so excited they have created and are sharing follow on step-by-step videos for those that need it. They are inviting us to use it ourselves and refer any business owners we think can use it–this is the start to recovering our economy…sharing what we know with each other so we can all be successful. “One tide lifts all boats” (quote by Elaine Starling)

What a fun day! I miss doing fashion related things. I know it can be a real hustle and bustle but when you think about it, it’s pretty exciting and pretty cool. If you’re ever in the DC are (fat chance of that, I know), I would take you out to a swell lunch and pick your brain over what should be nixed and what should be kept in my wardrobe. Enticing offer, huh?!?

Kevin was very special to Elaine and me from the first sesshin we attended 6 or 7 years ago to the most recent a few weeks ago, when he came in during an evening sitting walking slowly with his cane and friends in support. I'll miss his humor and his dedication.

Aww, love this. That sweater is fabulous (and so are you!). I have a sweater that's quite faded and several sizes too big, but it's gone through three generations of women in my family and although my mom keeps egging me to get rid of it I don't think I'll ever be able to.

Once I received a call offering me a decent sum to turn for a pianist for a chamber music concert. I was pleased to finally get paid for something I'd been doing pro bono for years. I got there early and met with the pianist. He seemed high-strung but some people are before a concert. I clarified repeat issues with him and he assured me he was a clear nodder.The concert began and I soon saw why he was so high-strung; his mediocre technique and limited musicality made him a bad choice to play the well-known Beethoven and Brahms trios he was tackling (almost literally, football player style). We got towards the end of the first page and he did not nod. I figured, Maybe he likes memorize the beginning of the next page and have late turns. Nope as we reached the last two beats he abruptly turned his heard toward me and, in a low, gruff voice barked, Turn! This disagreeable ritual was repeated for most of the performance. I thought it might have been less disruptive for him and the audience to nod as he said. No such luck. I made it through and didn't mess it up, but he really unnerved me and I dare say I was very deserving of my pay that evening.

Hello Online Payday Advance,The basis behind all of this polerbm is that the business owners normally worked for someone equally as bad at training team members, so that's all they know now that they are business owners themselves.So they went from working for a fool to being a fool with others working for them.And because everyone else in their industry is doing the same incestuous things, they believe that's how it's done and shut their minds to better ways that I have taught all of my coaching clients.StevePS Incest brings about dumbing of the species and that's exactley what happens in business when everyone does what theit competitors are doing . . . if you want to succeed, look at what the competition are doing and do the opposite!
