Franchise Financing Made Easy: Best Western & FUNDINGO’s PIP Loan Automation

Franchise financing can often seem like a daunting task for lenders, especially when it comes to managing the complexities of Property Improvement Plans (PIPs) within the hospitality sector. As franchises like Best Western continue to expand and modernize their facilities, having an efficient loan servicing solution becomes essential. This is where FUNDINGO steps in with its innovative PIP loan automation designed specifically for the hospitality industry.
