How this industry compares
defaulted within 7 yearsDefault rate is not a judgement on the industry. It tells you how a lender will price your risk, and how much cushion you should build in.
When borrowers got into trouble
share of failures by yearTrouble rarely arrives in year one. It arrives when the opening cash is gone — which is an argument for borrowing more working capital, not less.
What this means for your application
A typical loan here runs $175k over 10 years. If you are asking for far more than that, expect harder questions and a longer file. If far less, check which lenders will even take it — many won't go below $150,000.
