We pre-underwrite every restaurant business loan application before it leaves our Riverside office at 4510 Brockton Ave, Riverside, CA 92501, Jurupa Valley, CA. That means recasting your profit-and-loss statement to add back owner draws, verifying your lease allows a permitted restaurant use, and confirming your liquor license (if applicable) is transferable or in good standing. Lenders decline files when food-cost ratios exceed 35% without explanation, when the lease has fewer than ten years remaining, or when the buyer has no restaurant management experience. We identify those red flags early and either restructure the request or redirect you to a different program with better approval odds. Call (951) 635-3215 to discuss your scenario.
