Raul recently started a real estate company with a unique way of presenting a menu of services, each with a fixed price, rather than using the traditional commission on sales price. his firm has grown to 21 brokers, and he has plans to expand his model nationally. in applying for a loan, how should raul best present his firm?

small business

Explanation:

Based on the company specifications that is provided about Raul's company the most appropriate representation of his firm would be a small business. This is the case because a small business is categorized as any business with one owner controlling and running a business with less than 100 employees. Seeing as Raul only has 21 brokers employed and is planning to expand his model nationally but has NOT yet done so, then he is the owner of a small business.

credit history is used by lenders to determine whether you are a 'risky' person to give their money to.

having a short history provide very little data for the lenders. they wouldn't be able to determine your credit behavior from such a small samples. even if they are perfect.

having long credit history with few blemishes provide larger and more accurate data for the lenders to predict your credit behavior.
