He was recommended to me by a friend and I could not be more satisfied with his services. He was fast, asked many questions, but made the entire process as painless as possible. He saved my taxes not only from this year, but also amended last year’s as well. I was able to make an appointment quickly and Dmitriy finished all the paperwork for me- wonderful customer service. Thank you! Michelle M. I have been client of Velin & Associates for 3 years as a small business owner & a medical professional. When I first came in my accounts were a mess & Dmitriy helped my organize bookkeeping, went over payroll with me, & we made a plan on how to structure my corporate taxes & personal taxes. After 3 years of coming to this accounting/tax office, I’m still a satisfied customer & highly recommend him for both tax, accounting, or consulting needs. Josef B. I have been coming here for about six years. Velin and Associates/LA Tax Services have been there for me as a both a personal tax preparation service and as a business advisor and tax CPA. I am very happy with the advice I get here and the guidance every year. Happy to be a part of the client base. Look forward to working with them for many years to come. Tess V. As a newcomer from Australia to the US I was extremely fortunate to have found Dmitriy to assist me with my tax. He not only explained the system here in the US however was able to help me finish it in the quickest and most efficient way possible. Year over year – he continues to do so. I may be one of his more difficult customers with a few Australian accounts however it would never seem that way to him. Dmitriy also thinks of you long term and encourages good habits in regards to your spending/financial situation. He is incredibly smart and I always come away knowing that I am in good hands in regards to tax. He’s associate that I work with is super patient with me when I am gathering the information and makes it painless. Naveen R. I highly recommend his services. As a physician, it is really difficult to find CPA’s who understand our needs. Dmitriy was very experienced in working with other physicians in the area, which made it very easy to relate. If you need someone who understands your concerns, Mr Velin and his staff will take good care of you. Zach B. I can’t say enough good things about Dmitriy and his staff. Dmitriy is passionate about saving you money, and he’ll work with you until he’s saved you every last possible cent. Get in there and stop overpaying on your taxes! Sam G. Dmitriy is awesome!!! I called Velin & Associates seeking some insight on a tax notice that worried me and he was able to see me the same day! As a young person working in the entertainment industry, it’s been difficult wrapping my head around certain aspects of my taxes and I have been meaning to find an accountant familiar with the entertainment landscape. I expected to go into the meeting having to explain what I do / how I get paid / etc but Dmitry took one look at the notice and my tax returns and he knew exactly how to handle. Not only does he know his stuff but he is super friendly and has a great sense of humor! Puts you totally at ease! I am so happy to have Velin & Associates in my corner now and look forward to a long lasting relationship with them!! James N. I’m a freelancer in the film industry. Dmitriy is the first tax specialist I’ve used. My visit could not have gone any better. He’s extremely helpful, very honest and down to earth. I’m positive he got me the best possible results and I also got lots of advice for when I come back next year (which I most certainly will!) Tinger h. Years ago, I used to do taxes on my own through one of the online services. But as I started investing more in my health coaching business and personal accounts, I realized that the online services were limited. I had so many questions regarding what I could deduct or how to best invest my money to reduce my tax payments; Dmitriy doesn’t just do taxes but he’s been providing financial planning for my future. I appreciate that Dmitriy cares and always goes out of his way to make sure I fully understand the process. And more importantly, I trust him. I’ve been working with him for the past three years. And he’s always available via phone or email. Even when I submit my information days before April 15th, he gets it done. Thank you! George B. I found Velin & Associates, Inc. online. about a year ago when I was searching for a new CPA to help me with my taxes and all my accounting needs. This was the best call I made. Dmitri is a very knowledgeable accountant and helped me thru my tax needs. He is attentive, professional and is sincerely concerned about my financial well being. He made sure to understand my business in order to determine what I can legally write off to achieve the best possible outcome on my taxes. He helped me set financial goals thru strategic planning for the next year so I can stay on top of my business and keep track of my investments. He has prepared my taxes for 2 years now and I will continue to seek professional financial advice from Dmitri. I strongly recommend Dmitri’s services to anyone looking for an excellent CPA. Helen K. I’ve been going to Dmitriy for 8 years because he consistently provides quality tax services. His business, Velin & Associates, which is listed here on Yelp as LA Tax Services is NOT to be confused with another firm called LA Tax Service where I noticed a Yelp reviewer incorrectly posted a poor review on this page that was meant for the other firm (see the review that mentions Aaron Rubenstein). Anyway, I’m always very pleased with Dmitriy’s attention to detail, and I appreciate his personable demeanor too. He always makes sure to squeeze me into his already busy schedule even at the last moment. He is diligent and trustworthy, and I recommend him wholeheartedly. P.J. P. I’ve been working in the entertainment industry for over 25 years, and have gone through various CPAs and firms in that time for my tax preparation. I wish I had found Dmitry years ago! Luckily, I have him in my corner now and for that, I could not be happier. As my career has grown, the taxes have gotten more complicated. But nothing seems complicated with Dmitry. He explains every step of the process, has excellent business advice and has helped me and my production company tremendously. Going to see the CPA in the past was always cause for stress – but with Dmitry, it is a pleasure to get to work with him, to learn from him and to know that he understands the film industry and how we work. His office is in the heart of West Hollywood, he is super professional and yet down to earth, open-minded, and loves everyone, which makes coming to see him a pure joy. It’s great knowing that I am in good hands with him and his team. Heres to many more years ahead working together!! Frank L. Dmitriy is the best. I went to him with a complicated tax situation and he handled it expertly. His staff was also extremely friendly and accommodating. I can’t recommend him enough, truly. Al F. Velin & Associates is my go to company for any financial advice or to file my taxes. I have been working with the company for over 4 years, and they have only helped me progress financially and with my business. I would recommend Velin & Associates to anyone who is looking for a driven, hard working, and great person to work with. I am in the entertainment business which requires me to travel a lot. They have helped me put together a loan out corporation and take care of my affairs when I am gone. 5 star rating is a must! J M. Dmitriy and The accounting staff are great, Dmitriy is good communicator, he has helped me with not only starting my company. But has helped guide me into making the best choices for my company and myself. His tax strategies always come through. Would recommend anyone to come see him! Worth every dollar. He does tax planning and has shared deductions with me that we’re not brought up by another CPA I had. This includes the new AB 150 rules for path through entities.

IRS Forms IRS Publications My Organizer Reviews Contact us tax forms upload docs Small Business ► What can I do to prepare my small business for the generation to come? The process of passing a family business onto the second generation is so difficult that not even a third of them survive. Beyond that, roughly half make it to a third generation. In a normal day in the U.S., 40 percent of businesses are confronted with a change of owners. Those who have founded the companies are struggling to find remedies, but there aren’t many options. Here are a few possible remedies to this problem: Sell off the company. End the business. Remain as the owner, but contract others to manage. Keep ownership and management within the family. The most common causes for failure of the transition of the small business are as follows: There is no strategy. The business is missing energy. The owner lacks the motivation to change the business. The coming generations are not interested in working with the business. The main reason for closure is not having a strategy. If planned properly, the business has no reason to worry. The process of passing a family business onto the second generation is so difficult that not even a third of them survive… ► How do I create a successful strategy for passing on my family business? The family must do the following to attempt to have a worthwhile transition: Formulate a strategy focused on the family. Formulate a strategy focused on the business. Make a Succession Plan, which includes setting dates for retirement and the training for who will follow. Make an Estate Plan. These are the four key points to a successful business transfer. They basically guarantee a transition for years to come within your family when implemented correctly. What is a strategy focused on the family? The purpose of the family strategy is to keep a well-functioning business. The policies for the role of the family in relation to the company are set in this strategy. There may be policies for entering and exiting the workforce of the business. It should incorporate the basic guidelines as well as a mission statement that explains what is important to the family. The strategy needs to take into consideration who in the family would like to have significant roles in the business and who would like less responsibility. What is a strategy focused on the business? A strategy focused on the business permits each new member of the family to establish their own future for the company. To make sure that everyone has the same idea as to where the business is headed, there is a need to formulate goals. The strategy should concentrate on the future of the company at a particular date. What is involved in a Succession Plan? The purpose of the succession plan is to aid those who founded or are in control of the company through the transition. It should explain the details of how to know when the next generation is ready to take over and the process for that transition. What is contained in an Estate Plan? The plan for the estate is vital for the company and family. In the end, without a strategy, there will be higher estate taxes than needed, which in turns gives less to the successors. This plan should be in accordance with the succession plan to ensure the transition of the business is done in the most tax effective way. The family must do the following to attempt to have a worthwhile transition… ► Do I have what it takes to own and manage my own business? First, think about why you want to start your own business and make a list. The thrill of being self-employed, the need for independence both financially and professionally, and the desire to use the most of your intelligence and talents are a few of the most frequent motivations. You also need to make sure you have the desire to put in the time to make a successful business. To decide what type of business fits you the best, you should think about what you find enjoyment in doing and what talents you have. Ask others for their thoughts, and see if any of your everyday activities can be made profitable. At this point, you will need to investigate what will be the exact niche for your company. Determine what it is you want to put on the market, what the competition is like, and how to get ahead of the competition. The most important consideration is the demand for your product or service. First, think about why you want to start your own business and make a list… ► What should the business strategy contain? A business strategy, when applied to your company, should include an introduction, details about marketing, financial management, operations of the company, and a closing statement. In the introduction of the business strategy, what should I incorporate? This segment of the business strategy should contain information about the company and its objectives. Detail the experience within your company and the structure of management and legal status. State what your business has to get ahead of the competition. In the marketing portion of the business strategy, what should I incorporate? This is where you should state the products or services being offered and their demand in the market. It should also detail the market and its particular location and size. In the financial management segment of the business strategy, what should I incorporate? You should outline the source and amount of the initial equity capital. You also should create a monthly operating budget for the beginning years, as well as expected return on investment (or ROI) and monthly cash flow for these years. After that, present the balance sheets and income statements for the first 2 years and state the break-even point. Discuss your own balance sheet and ways of compensation. Explain who will be in charge of accounting affairs and how they will be maintained. Lastly, think through the possible problems that may arise and develop solutions. In the operations segment of the business strategy, what should I incorporate? This is where the explanation of the management of the daily activities will be. It should include insurance coverage, lease or rent agreements and the processes related to the staff and employment. It should also detail what is necessary to produce the products/services and the processes of production and delivery. In the closing statement of the business strategy, what should I incorporate? You should restate the company’s objectives and purposes and explain the dedication you have to make your company succeed. Be sure to include the methods you plan to use to reach your objectives. A business strategy, when applied to your company, should include an introduction, details about marketing, financial management, operations of the company, and a closing statement… ► How do I know if a business based at home is good for me? You have to base your decision to start your own business on something other than the desire to be your own boss, such as: knowing beforehand what it is going to take, a thorough evaluation of your personality, and willingness to go the extra mile. You must be able to make plans and continually make the necessary changes and developments as you go. You will Benefits - The Premier Los Angeles CPA Firm | Velin & Associates, Inc.

As a newcomer from Australia to the US I was extremely fortunate to have found Dmitriy to assist me with my tax. He not only explained the system here in the US however was able to help me finish it in the quickest and most efficient way possible. Year over year – he continues to do so.

While we are no exception to this rule, we take just as much pride in the quality and capabilities of our managers and other team members. When we hire staff, we do not simply fill the requisite number of positions. We work hard to attract people with the ability to immediately increase the depth of understanding we bring to the industries and services that are our specialties. It is not uncommon for even the newest employee to be asked to add his or her unique perspective to an issue or a project. Nor is it uncommon for a manager, who at many firms would be asked to remain silent during meetings, to offer a critical insight. We encourage you to talk to the people who work at Velin & Associates, Inc. Whether a partner, director or manager, we fully expect you will find an uncommon level of understanding of your business and an uncommon passion for the services he or she provides.

IRS Forms IRS Publications My Organizer Reviews Contact us tax forms upload docs Buying or Leasing Your Next Car ► Which is better, buying or leasing my next car? It depends on factors such as 1) what kind of deal you can make with the dealership, 2) the typical mileage you put on your car, 3) how much you wear down a car, and 4) the primary use for the car. To determine whether leasing or buying is best, compare the costs and other issues involved in a lease or purchase. The following factors should be considered: Beginning costs Continual costs Total costs Is there a possibility of deduction of any of the costs due to the car being used for business How important is it to have ownership of the car It depends on factors such as 1) what kind of deal you can make with the dealership, 2) the typical mileage you put on your car… ► When buying a car, how can I get the “best buy”? You first need to decide on the type, size and options of the car you would like (such as manual, automatic windows, airbags). You then need to decide what the car dealer has to pay for the car of your choice – the “invoice cost”. The difference between the sticker price and the invoice price can be negotiated. You can obtain this information two different ways. The best way is to look at an auto pricing service supplied by a consumer group or an auto magazine. For instance, Consumer Reports New Car Price Service (800-933-5555), at a price of $12 per model will give you details of the invoice price and the sticker price that can adjusted for options or rebates as well as tell you how to use the data for negotiating. This is the best way because it gives you the most recent information. Another way is to use pricing guides that can be found on the Internet. Two popular sites are Intellichoice (www.intellichoice.com) or Edmund’s New Car Prices (www.edmunds.com). You may also be able to obtain these books at the library and they will give you an idea about the information that you need instead of exact data. If you have a trade-in, you will want to find the value of that car too. You can use the N.A.D.A. Official Used Car Guide (check your local library or www.nada.org) to look up your used car. Now it’s time to begin negotiating with dealers. Because you know the invoice price, you can use that information to bargain for the lowest mark-up from the dealer’s cost. An amount like $300 to $500 above the dealer’s cost is a sensible mark-up, unless the car you want to buy is either difficult to get or very popular. Any attempts by the dealership to sell you rustproofing, undercoating, or other extras should be refused. You may want to invest in an extended warranty, depending on the model’s repair history. You first need to decide on the type, size and options of the car you would like… ► How can I negotiate for a new car? Keep in mind that you are not just looking for a car. You also have to select a dealer with whom you will continue a long-term relationship with, as you usually have to service your car at the dealership. If you aren’t comfortable with the dealership, go somewhere else. A good time to try for a good bargain on a car is the last Saturday of September, October, or December. Before you start looking for a car, learn about the financing options. You can be prepared when the dealer starts to discuss financing if you are aware of what the banks are charging. Some points you will want to highlight during the negotiations are: You are aware of the exact model and options you want You are shopping around and will get quotes from other dealerships You will not be talking about financing or trade-ins until the dealer has given an offer and make sure not to mention a trade-in until the price has been negotiated. You are fully aware of the invoice cost of the car Lastly, go to other dealerships even if you think you have a great price. Keep in mind that you are not just looking for a car. You also have to select a dealer with whom you will continue a long-term relationship with… ► Do I negotiate on a car lease the same as I could on a car purchase? Like a loan, the monthly lease payment is reliant on the term of the lease, the implied interest rate and the initial “purchase price” of the car. The “lease-end” or “residual” value varies from a loan, but is still important. This is the value that is expected at the end of the lease term. You are paying the difference between the initial purchase price and the residual value in a lease. The lowest purchase price should be negotiated, which will lower the cost of leasing. If you don’t intend to buy the car at the end of the lease term and it is closed-end, you might want to negotiate a higher residual value. Make sure that your expected mileage during the lease aligns with the allowed mileage in the agreement. If it doesn’t, you may pay significant penalties when you turn the vehicle back in to the dealer. Like a loan, the monthly lease payment is reliant on the term of the lease, the implied interest rate and the initial “purchase price” of the car… ► How does an auto lease function? Lease arrangements come in two different types: open-end or “finance” and closed-end or “walk-away.” This is how they work: Open-End: The Risk of Depreciated Value Falls on You At the end of the lease, the customer accepts the risk that the car will have a particular value or “estimate residual value” at the end of the lease. Due to this, the monthly payment is lower. At the end of the lease and your return of the car, it will be appraised. If the appraised value of the car is equal to at least the estimated residual value stated in the agreement, it will not be necessary to pay anything. With certain contracts, it is possible to receive a refund if the appraised value is lower than the residual value, although, you might have to pay part or all of the difference. Closed-End: The Risk of Depreciated Value Falls onto the Dealer At the end of the closed-end lease, the car is returned to the dealership and you simply walk away. It must be returned with only normal wear and tear, and with less than the mileage limit that is stated in the lease. The monthly payment is higher than an open-end lease because the dealer bears the risk that the car’s value with decrease by the end of the lease. Lease arrangements come in two different types: open-end or “finance” and closed-end or “walk-away”… ► What is included in the initial costs of leasing a car? Learn what the total initial costs will be when determining if you want to lease or buy. You will use this total amount to compare to the cost of buying. Initial costs are the amount you will need to come up with for the down payment when you lease a car. The security deposit, the first and last lease payments, the “capitalized cost reductions,” the sales taxes, title fees, license fees, and insurance are included. Usually the initial costs amount to less than the down payment that is necessary to purchase a car. During the bargaining with the dealer, all initial costs are open for negotiation. The Lessor must disclose all up-front, continuing, and ending costs in a standard, understandable format according to the Federal Consumer Leasing Act.

There are a variety of discounts available from the insurance company for all sorts of reasons: living close to work, getting good grades, and so on.

With long-term care insurance (LTCI), you are guaranteed to be paid a certain amount of money towards care for a specified length of time. As the age of the covered individual increases, so does the premium, so in order to get a better rate, this is something that you may want to purchase earlier in life while the premiums are still low. Indemnity-type insurance actually distributes the money to the caregivers, and pays the daily benefit directly to the insured party; this type can be easier because there is much less paperwork and more flexibility about how the money can be spent.

IRS Forms IRS Publications My Organizer Reviews Contact us tax forms upload docs Dental and medical corporations operate in one of the most financially complex business environments in California. Beyond patient care and regulatory compliance, healthcare professionals must also manage payroll, entity structure, compensation planning, equipment investments, and multi-layered tax obligations. For many practice owners, taxes represent one of the largest ongoing expenses of the business. Yet with proactive planning and the right structure, medical and dental corporations can significantly reduce tax liability while remaining fully compliant with federal and California regulations. At Velin & Associates, Inc., we work with healthcare professionals, medical groups, dental practices, and professional corporations throughout California to develop tax-efficient strategies tailored to their operations, growth goals, and long-term financial objectives. Why Tax Planning Is Critical for Healthcare Practices Medical and dental corporations often generate strong revenue, but they also face: High operating expenses Significant payroll obligations Expensive equipment purchases Complex owner compensation structures California franchise and income taxes Multi-provider compensation arrangements Without proper planning, practices may overpay taxes, create compliance issues, or miss valuable deduction opportunities. Strategic tax planning is not just about reducing taxes this year—it is about improving long-term profitability, cash flow, and financial stability. Choosing the Right Entity Structure One of the most important decisions for healthcare professionals is selecting the proper entity structure. In California, licensed professionals often operate as: Professional Corporations (PCs) S-Corporations C-Corporations The right structure depends on: Practice profitability Number of owners Compensation goals Growth strategy Future expansion plans S-Corporation Election for Medical and Dental Practices Many healthcare practices benefit from electing S Corporation status. Why It Matters S-Corporations allow profits to pass through to shareholders while potentially reducing self-employment tax exposure. Owners working in the practice must receive a reasonable salary subject to payroll taxes, while additional profits may often be distributed as shareholder distributions. Example: A dental corporation generates substantial annual profit. Instead of treating all earnings as wages, the owner receives a reasonable salary and takes the remaining profit as distributions, potentially reducing payroll tax liability. This structure can create meaningful annual tax savings when properly implemented. Compensation Planning for Practice Owners Owner compensation is one of the most important areas of healthcare tax planning. Key Considerations Salary versus distributions Bonus structures Retirement contributions Payroll tax exposure Example: A medical corporation pays all profits as payroll compensation, resulting in higher payroll taxes. Through proper compensation planning, a portion of income may be structured more efficiently while remaining compliant with IRS reasonable compensation requirements. Improper compensation planning can trigger IRS scrutiny, so balance and documentation are critical. Maximizing Deductible Business Expenses Healthcare corporations typically incur substantial deductible operating expenses. Common Deduction Categories Employee wages and benefits Rent and facility expenses Medical and dental supplies Equipment and technology Professional licensing fees Continuing education Insurance premiums Marketing and administrative costs Example: A medical practice upgrades patient management software, replaces equipment, and invests in staff training. Proper classification and tracking of these expenses helps reduce taxable income. Accurate bookkeeping is essential to ensure deductions are properly documented. Equipment Purchases and Accelerated Depreciation Medical and dental practices frequently invest in high-cost equipment. Potential Tax Benefits Section 179 expensing Bonus depreciation Accelerated cost recovery Example: A dental corporation purchases new imaging equipment and treatment technology. Instead of depreciating the assets over many years, the practice may be able to deduct a significant portion immediately, reducing current-year taxable income. Strategic timing of equipment purchases can improve cash flow and lower taxes. Retirement Planning Strategies Retirement plans are one of the most effective tax-saving tools available to healthcare professionals. Common Options 401(k) plans Profit-sharing plans Defined benefit plans Cash balance plans Example: A highly profitable medical practice establishes a retirement plan that allows substantial annual contributions for the owners and employees, reducing taxable income while building long-term retirement assets. For high-income professionals, advanced retirement strategies can create significant deductions. Health Insurance and Fringe Benefit Planning Healthcare corporations may also benefit from tax-efficient employee and owner benefit planning. Potential Areas Health insurance Disability insurance Retirement matching Continuing education reimbursements Example: A practice provides benefits to employees and physician-shareholders. Proper structuring helps maximize deductions while maintaining compliance with shareholder benefit rules. Benefit treatment differs between S Corporations and C Corporations, making entity structure especially important. Hiring Family Members and Staffing Strategies In some cases, employing family members in legitimate business roles can provide tax planning opportunities. Example: A practice hires a family member to assist with administration, scheduling, or operations. Compensation for legitimate services performed may create deductible business expenses while shifting income within the family. All compensation must be reasonable and properly documented. Multi-Location and Multi-State Practices As practices expand, tax complexity increases. Common Challenges Multi-state tax filings Nexus and apportionment rules Payroll registration requirements Sales and use tax considerations Example: A healthcare group operates offices in multiple states. Proper income allocation and multi-state planning help prevent overpayment of taxes and reduce compliance risk. California’s tax rules are particularly aggressive, making proactive planning essential. Estimated Taxes and Cash Flow Planning Healthcare practices often generate uneven cash flow due to insurance reimbursements, production fluctuations, and seasonal trends. Why Planning Matters Failure to properly manage estimated taxes can lead to: Underpayment penalties Cash flow disruptions Unexpected year-end liabilities Example: A profitable practice underestimates quarterly tax obligations and faces large penalties at year-end. Ongoing tax projections help avoid surprises and improve financial stability. Audit Risk and Compliance Considerations Medical and dental corporations should maintain strong documentation and compliance systems.

IRS Forms IRS Publications My Organizer Reviews Contact us tax forms upload docs Financing ► What can I do to raise money for my small business? Although the process is complex and frustrating, raising capital is the most basic of all business activities. When looking for financing, there are various sources to consider. For most new businesses, the main source of capital comes from savings and other forms of personal resources. There are better options available than credit cards that are often used for financing, even a small business loan. When beginning, entrepreneurs usually look to private sources like friends and family. Generally, the money is loaned at a low interest rate or interest free, which is very beneficial at the beginning. The most common source of funding, not including personal resources, are credit unions and banks who will provide a loan if it is possible to show that your offer is worthwhile. Other sources are venture capital firms that aid businesses in exchange for partial or equity ownership. Although the process is complex and frustrating, raising capital is the most basic of all business activities. ► For business financing, what kinds of loans exist? You must know the exact amount of money that you need, what your purpose is and how you will repay it in order to be successful in getting a loan. You must convince the lender in a written proposal that you are a good credit risk. There are two basic kinds of loans, although terms vary by lender: Short-term and long-term, maturity periods of up to one year are generally short-term, which include accounts receivable loans, working capital loans and lines of credit. Maturities greater than a year and less than seven years is a typical long-term loan. Equipment and real estate loans can have maturity up to 25 years. Major business expenses such as purchasing real estate and facilities, durable equipment, construction, vehicles, furniture and fixtures, etc. are a few purposes for long-term loans. You must know the exact amount of money that you need, what your purpose is and how you will repay it in order to be successful in getting a loan. ► When considering a loan request, what do banks look for? The bank official who reviews the loan request is focused on repayment. Most loan officers request a copy of your business credit report to determine your ability to repay. The lending officer will consider the following issues while using the information you provided and the credit report: Have you invested at least 25% or 50% of savings or personal equity into the business for the loan you are requesting? (Keep in mind that 100% of your business will not be financed by an investor.) Do your work history, your credit report and letters of recommendation show a healthy record of credit worthiness? This is a key factor. Do you have the training and experience necessary to operate a successful business? Do your loan proposal and business plan document your knowledge of and dedication to the success of the business? Is the cash flow of the business sufficient to make the monthly payments on the requested loan? The bank official who reviews the loan request is focused on repayment. Most loan officers request a copy of your business credit report to determine your ability to repay. ► What do I need to include in a good loan proposal? The following main points should be contained in a good loan proposal: General Information Reason for the loan: the exact purpose of the loan and why it is necessary. Amount needed: the specific amount needed to reach your goal. Business name and address, names of officers and their social security numbers. Description of Business Describe the type of business you have, its age, current business assets, and number of employees. Structure of ownership: describe the legal structure of the company. Management Profile Prepare a short statement that is focused on each principal in your business; give details about education, background, accomplishments and skills Market Information State clearly the products of your company as well as its markets. Name the competition and explain how you plan to compete in the market. Describe what the business will do to satisfy the needs of its customers. Financial Information Submit your own personal financial statements as well as those of the principal business owners. Financial statements: the income statements and balance sheets for the past three years. If you have a new business, provide the projected balance sheet and income statement. Specify the collateral that you are able and willing to give as security for the loan. The following main points should be contained in a good loan proposal … Getting a Loan ► What are the advantages of prepaying a mortgage, and should I if I can? It is highly recommended that you prepay as much of your mortgage as possible every month, which will drastically reduce the total amount that you pay. However there are times where this could be disadvantageous. If you are in a situation where you don’t have funds to cover three to six months of expenses, it is recommended that you save that amount before you pay additional amounts on your mortgage. If you have a large amount of credit card debt, over the long run, you will save more money by knocking down those high interest loans first. There also may be times where that money would be more wisely invested in the market, depending on the expected rate of return versus how much you would save in early payments. It is highly recommended that you prepay as much of your mortgage as possible every month, which will drastically reduce the total amount that you pay. ► Should I refinance? In order to refinance your home, the current market rate should be at least 2 percentage points lower than what you are paying on your mortgage. Speak with a lender to see what rate you may be able to get. Remember to factor in costs like appraisals, points from the lender, and others, which may not be apparent in your initial price assessment. After assessing that cost, get a quote of what your total payment would be after refinancing. The simplest way to find out how long it will take to recover the refinancing costs will be to divide your closing costs by the monthly savings with your new monthly payment. Also take into consideration how long you plan on holding your home. It may not make sense to refinance the home if you plan on selling in the near future. In order to refinance your home, the current market rate should be at least 2 percentage points lower than what you are paying on your mortgage. ► Does borrowing against my securities make sense? This could be a low-cost option for borrowing but there is some risk involved. Deductions are not allowed for the interest unless that loan is used to invest in a business. This could be a low-cost option for borrowing but there is some risk involved. ► Can a Home Equity Line of Credit be beneficial? A home equity line of credit is a form of credit which allows you to borrow and use your home as collateral. Since for many, a home is their greatest asset, they tend to use these sorts of credit lines for large things like a college education for their c Trusted CPA for Creators | Velin & Associates, Inc.
