NECOG Development Corporation Application Checklist and Notes
NECOG Development Corporation is an alternative lender for small business financing. A combination of a conventional (bank) loan and the applicant’s equity is expected to provide the majority of the required financing. Refinancing or restructuring of existing debt is generally not eligible; funds are targeted for job creation. Terms of NECOG-DC loans, including amortization term, interest rates, balloon payments, collateral positions, etc. are determined on a case-by-case basis by the NECOG-DC Board. Board will require adequate collateral. NECOG-DC Board generally meets once per month, and complete applications must be in the NECOG office 10 days prior to the schedule board meeting in order to be considered at that month’s board meeting. Expect a cycle of 45 days from the time the application is submitted to NECOG-DC until the funds are available, assuming a complete application and loan approval. NECOG-DC loan funds must be the last funds into the project, and the loan cannot be closed before any other funds. The following items must be included with your NECOG-DC application in order to be considered by the NECOG-DC Board.
