How we research and review

Articles are drafted by our editors against a structured brief that requires named-source citations for any specific statistic (SBA, Federal Reserve, FRED, recognized industry associations) and concrete rate ranges only where they can be supported. Every article is reviewed before publication.

We update articles when market rates or qualification standards change materially. The "Updated" date on each article reflects the last meaningful edit.

How we make money

When readers click "see if you qualify" we route the request to one or more lender partners or lending marketplaces. We may receive a referral fee if a reader is matched with a lender. This does not change the rate or terms any individual lender offers a reader.
