Listing Information
Amount: $17,000.00 Status: Expired
Grade: C DTI: 44%
Lender Rate: 20% Borrower: palerider
Time Left: Finished State: IL
Funded: 0% Group: (No Group)
Purpose of loan:
To buy inventory for existing business that I'll be taking over.

My financial situation:
My finances have been tight lately because I've been heavily investing in a business the last 6 months.  It has brought my credit score from A standing (status from last prosper loan) to C standing because of the higher debt I've accumulated over the past 6 months.  The business is doing well and has turned a profit the last 3 months. We are still reinvesting and beginning to start paying back our loans.

I now have the opportunity to buy another business with the same type of makeup in a different location.  It has been struggling to bust even the past year.  It has 1 key flaw, the owner is not able to buy enough inventory to bring it in the profit.  The purpose of this loan is so that I can take over the business, purchase the inventory, and pay him down over time for the cost of his business.  Approx. $30,000.

I also do some freelance programming on the side, but do not include that in my totals as it is irregular.
