Want to open an auto repair franchise store. I figured a franchise would come with the selling power I need for initial boost, and that it would be a more sound and low-risk investment to get a loan for. I've found that banks are not encouraged to lend me the money I need, rather, have referred me to BDC which is higher interest but would be more willing to invest. BDC says that it is a high-risk business and that they would only offer 50% of the needed start-up investment of 100k. I might be able to come up with about 20K of my own money. Is there anyone else I can ask for funds?
