Undisclosed Fees

Unfortunately, there is no way for a small business owner to know exactly what 4 Pillars Funding services are going to cost in the long run. Each situation, loan type, and financial needs are different, which means costs and fees are going to be different. As a result, fees for 4 Pillars Funding are undisclosed.

Small Operation

As a family-owned and operated business that is realistically new to the space, 4 Pillars Funding is still a relatively small operation in comparison to other companies in the industry. While that does not mean the company cannot provide a quality service, the volume at which the company can operate is not the same as other funding firms.
