WE’RE SERVING AN EXTRA HELPING OF
INTEREST-ONLY PAYMENTS!
The W-2 Requirement Is Also Off The Table!
Business owners have a lot on their plates. Holiday inventory, staffing, slower receivables, and plans for the new year can all put pressure on cash flow. ARF Financial is bringing more to the table with payment flexibility that helps business owners plan ahead.
Elevate 12 increases the available interest-only payment weeks from eight to twelve, giving business owners more choices about when to defer regular amortizing payments. During those weeks, they pay interest while postponing payments toward the amount borrowed.
- Up to eight weeks may be used during the first 26 weeks or saved for later in the loan term.
- Four additional weeks become available after week 26.
- Interest remains payable during interest-only weeks.
- EVERY APPROVED CLIENT QUALIFIES!
