Maybe a good place to star is with the SBA. You most likely need a good business plan and i do believe they can help with that. They will make a determination and give you constructive advice. lose weight quicklysun auto salesminneapolis landscapingfree car auctioncar auctions online Message Edited by ChristineL on 01-06-2010 10:46 AM

There are are no real programs for poor credit. If you want to buy a business or even start one but don't already have the money or know someone who will give you the money and your credit is poor - your only option is to fix your credit. There are many ways to do this - it takes time and discipline. If you cannot work hard to fix your credit - you, most likely, won't work hard enough to succeed in business. I suggest you work on fixing your credit yourself - much better than paying someone that may help you or (usually) not. Plus, you will learn what it takes to maintain great credit. I also suggest you don't fall for those other schemes that say you don't need personal credit. Banks and lenders also know about these schemes and either don't use them or still pull your personal credit. Instead of wasting yor time and money here - just work to fix your credit!
