Sachin and his team were great and very patient with me. He took the time to also call me, not email or text me, and wish me a Merry Christmas. That goes far for me. I highly recommend using them.

Be prepared to demand success.

Lendistry creates an opportunity to revive your business. Their terms and conditions, are in my opinion, a bit excessive. Be prepared to demand success.

A Reliable Source for Funding

Being a Nonprofit, it's hard to get legitimate outfits willing to lend us money at reasonable rates. Lendistry was not only reasonable, but literally half of the APR and twice the term of the next closest match. Not only that, but their customer service is amazing. Everett and his entire team are truly the good guys of the industry! Lendistry will be a major player in the landscape for a long while to come.

If you need the cash fast ....

I found myself in a position where I needed cash fast for my business to buy inventory that was unexpectedly being closed out. Unfortunately I was already pretty leveraged and my bank told me a credit increase would have to go through underwriting and I could not wait so I contacted Lendistry. I had my cash a few days later, but I paid for it, hence the four stars. Their rate was 5.5 points higher then my bank. Still, outside of the price shock, I do not think I could have closed the deal without them and everything else was painless.
