Hey everyone, I’ve been looking into buying a small coffee shop that’s been up for sale in my area. I’m not new to the idea of running a business, but this would be my first time actually owning one. The owner’s asking price seems fair, and I’ve already talked to him a couple of times. The tricky part is getting funding — I was told I need to submit a business plan to apply for financing, and honestly, that part kind of stresses me out. I’m not a finance pro, and I don’t want to mess up my one shot at getting a decent loan. Has anyone here gone through this and knows what banks or lenders are actually looking for in a business plan? I don’t need a perfect template, just some real-world advice on what matters most.
