Frequently Asked Questions

Collateral requirements vary by loan request. The value and age of collateral help determine loan-to-value considerations. Depending on the financing purpose, equipment, vehicles, or other eligible business assets may be considered as collateral.

A First Bank representative can explain what collateral, if any, may be required for your proposed loan.
Multiple advances may allow an approved borrower to draw funds from the loan as needed, rather than receiving the entire loan amount in one disbursement. Availability depends on the final loan structure, approved purpose, documentation, and First Bank’s current product requirements.

Ask your First Bank representative whether multiple advances are available for your request.
Loan-to-value compares the loan amount with the value of the collateral securing the loan. For example, the financing available for a business vehicle or equipment purchase may be affected by the asset’s current value, age, condition, and the bank’s loan-to-value requirements.
