Good service, but... In general I had a good experience with Streetshares. Their rates were better than most other lenders, though the origination fee they charge decreases that benefit. The application process was easy and I have found since signing up that making extra early payments is easy enough as well. My only negative was the representative that contacted me to set up my account ended up being overly pushy to sell the service. When I stated that I needed some time to compare and check out their history he still pushed to close the deal. I ended up having to hang up on him. I did the research I needed and StreetShares did end up being the best option, but the hard sell sales technique left me with a bad taste. I would have knocked them down to 3 stars, but in this culture where anything but 5-star is bad I couldn't ding them that much for one incident when all their other service has been good. I'm not sure if that selling tactic is company policy, but hopefully they recognize that business owners need their space to make decisions.

It was a hard road but hard work, as always, paid off... I want to personally thank the VP in charge of Marketing and Business Development, David Bann for reaching out to me and listening to my initial upset. His call was worth getting the Funds, even if I don't get funded. Street Shares is going through a growth phase and there was no mistake that how my account was handled was a reflection of a 'Perfect Storm' of internal changes and a Maternity Leave. David was great at listening to my 'Case' and we left the call in a great place with mutual respect and the relationship in tact. BTW, if you read up on David you'll see what a fine young man he is with a legacy of Service and Education.

Mo Kanafseh is the consumate… Mo Kanafseh is the consumate professional. He does what he says he will do. that is truly phenominal in a world where people wont give you the time of day. There isnt enough accolades to give Mo for his compassionate nature and unequivoca lcompassion in getting the job done.

Alas, it is another experience to put in my rear view mirror with regret... I thought this would be a great online lender based on positive reviews. Instead I must warn other small businesses from considering this option. It sounds good, but the actual experience is exactly what other low rated reviews have been confirming... you will pay high upfront fees. Incredibly high interest rate. And no loyalty from the lender for performance and track record. I wanted to like this company, I really did, but alas it is another experience to put in my rear view mirror with regret. Go elsewhere for your lending needs. Do not allow this business to take advantage of your growing business and rope you in with false words.

Highly recommended for any veteran business owner I've had the pleasure of meeting the StreetShares team in person, and they're a great group of people. Now, we've decided to work together formally and I couldn't be more excited. The process was easy, and I can see this being a powerful, long-term partnership. If you're a veteran looking for financing or to raise money for your business... STOP looking elsewhere and contact StreetShares. This is the best deal and team around. Plus, they're veteran led, and plenty of veterans work there. It's a win-win.
