mfg Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Two banks came through with financing allowing Steve Blake's acquisition of Avanti Motors. One of them was the 1st Source Bank of South Bend....Can anyone name the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studegary Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 My understanding - 1st Source Bank + shareholders loans + shareholders investment for the purchase. At the closing - a working capital line of credit was tapped. However, this was not "financing allowing...acquisition." 1 hour ago, mfg said: Two banks came through with financing allowing Steve Blake's acquisition of Avanti Motors.

Share holders plus 1st Source Bank were indeed involved, however there was also a secondary bank....(HINT...$100K 'bridge' loan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lschuc Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 He a $2.5 million, 10-year loan from 1st Source, of which 75 percent was guaranteed by the state of Indiana. He got some money from Security National Bank, about $30,000, but that bank eventually sued Blake to get the money back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good info!....The 'REGARDIE'S' article mentioned Blake received a $100,000 bridge loan from the D.C. National Bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
