you need really good credit or collateral equalling the loan amount or somewhere near that - or try partnering up with someone else that wants to open a gas station.you can place an ad looking for investors too. |

Yes. The key is whether you are a person they are willing to lend one million dollars to. Factors to consider:
1. Your past credit history, as an indicator of whether they are likely to get their investment returned.
2. Security offered for the investment. This is also known as collateral. Someone with a net worth of less than one million dollars is NOT going to get a loan for one million dollars unless they have a REALLY good friend in the banking business. Why would you loan a homeless guy a thousand dollars, for example. Think you will get it back? Banks don't risk money like that.
3. Likelihood of success in the venture proposed. The more stable the business invested in looks, the more likely you are to get a loan. Most restaraunts are likely to close within the first 3 years for example. They are difficult to get a loan for (unless they are a franchise like Subway or Wendys).
If you are serious about buying the place, speak to the Small Business Association or Chamber of Commerce in your town. They may know of special loans or, better yet GRANTS (money you never have to pay back) for certain business ventures, such as minority-owned businesses or businesses that are vital to daily living, such as medical supply, etc. If you get money from multiple sources, you can sometimes patch together enough. However, you MUST disclose who your creditors (people lending you money) are to ALL parties. To do otherwise may constitute fraud and could land you in the pokey.
Definitely do your homework and figure out your net worth and the value of the property/business before you even speak to a loan officer. You should have a solid business proposal before you ask for a high-dollar investment. |

Sure, Donald Trump does it all the time, and for much more than a mere million. All it takes is that you convince a lender that you are a good risk. A proven winner like Trump has a reputation and history which makes him a good risk. Lenders are in it for the money. They loan to people who will pay them back and they make their profit off the interest. It is in their best interest to loan money to a good risk. So, make yourself a good risk, and they will loan you whatever you want. As with Trump, putting up a lot of your own money, a big down payment on a house for example, makes you a better risk than someone who puts up less. If you risk a great personal loss, they are more likely to take your loan for the balance. |

If You have the collateral ( security )
Rich Man, yes - Poor Man, No way |

Draft up a good business plan and see where it gets you. I think your probably just upset at the prices at the pumps though. |

If you have enough assets to cover the loan, in case you default on the payments...wow, u need a mil start up money??gas stations cost that much? |
|
Queenie knows it all.
|
of course it's possible |
|

yes it is possible. you have to have assets to cover the loan amount. or super good credit with super good 'income to debt' ratio.
in business however, there are lots of ways to get money.
but if you are buying a franchise, sometimes there are plans that will allow you to borrow large sums of money with only a small percent of assets (20 percent of the total) to your name. the corporation that owns the franchise will cover the other part in order to pass the loan.
be careful. be sure you know what your stakes are. |
