Bar Harbor Bank & Trust’s Approach to Business Lending
At Bar Harbor Bank & Trust, we want every business owner and entrepreneur who comes to us for financing for their business to be our next best client. Small businesses are the lifeblood of every community, and your success helps our communities grow and prosper. Our investment in you and your business is an investment in our community. There are many reasons why Bar Harbor Bank & Trust is the partner you need, including:
Fast, Local Decision Making
Entrepreneurs do everything for their business and securing financing is just another task on a long to-do list. That’s why we have streamlined our approval process to help you get the financing you need fast. For many of our small business clients, the process to apply, get approved, and get a loan can happen in a day or two.
Relationship Approach
We invest in and value long-term customer relationships. Our bankers take the time to truly understand your business and respective goals and challenges. Even after we approve your financing, we will be there to answer any questions you have or offer whatever assistance or guidance you might need.
Face-to-Face Interaction
Unlike the experience of borrowing from larger financial institutions, you will really know your banker when you work with us. Our bankers are more than just a name in your email inbox or voicemail. We are trusted advisors that you can sit down with during the application process and any time after.
Competitive rates
Small business loans are underwritten on a case-by-case basis. Every loan application is unique and evaluated on its own merits. Rates vary depending on the loan product.
