401(k) Business Financing

These are loans that are taken out based on the amount you have in your 401(k). Usually you can only borrow a maximum of 50% of the value of your 401(k), or $50,000, whichever is less. These types of loans charge interest, however, since you’re borrowing from your retirement plan, you’re actually paying the principal and interest back to yourself. The important thing about 401(k) financing is that you have to keep your job so that you can have continued control and access over your 401(k). For this reason, it isn’t recommended that entrepreneurs use this loan unless they intend to start a side-gig.

Will a 401(k) loan appear on my credit report?

No, they are not reported to the credit bureaus.

What happens if I default on my loan?

Usually, it’s very hard to default on one of these loans because they’re almost always deducted directly from your paycheck. However, if you do, you will be taxed on the outstanding balance as income, including an early withdrawal penalty if you are not at least age 59 ½.
