I would be most interested to hear about:- How rigorous of a task the document submission process/review was to secure your loan and your experience with the process.- The turnaround time for your loan.- Best practices that you found enabled your loan process to run smoother and efficiently.I would also invite those to comment who had applied for the loan, and perhaps used a commercial loan in the end to close the deal.Thanks!
