YOUR REAL ODDS

Contact INHS directly to discuss small business loan eligibility and required documents — 1–2 days
Submit application with supporting financials — 1–2 weeks
WORTH KNOWING
INHS explicitly focuses on low- and moderate-income community members, so founders who can demonstrate community impact or are themselves low-to-moderate income may be better positioned.
