Potentially, when you borrow money from family or friends, no interest rate is required. It is much cheaper to pay back your loved ones. On the other hand, one of the disadvantages is that if you can't pay the money back due to the collapse of your business, it can seriously harm your relationship.
Pros of borrowing money from banks would be that it allows you to make large purchases especially those of assets important to your business, will eventually be necessary at some point or other. Some of the things you can purchase with the help of a bank loan include property, vehicles, and machinery. The cons of this are that you have to pay the interest rate for a certain period of time, depending on your loan, and if you do not pay off the loan on time, the interest will go up and up.
It is best to borrow money from a venture capital group when you have no choice to borrow money from someone or your business is too risky for anyone to invest. In addition, unlike a bank loan, you are under no obligation to pay the money back if your business fails. One of the downsides to this is that venture capital firms take a piece or percentage of your company when they provide financing and often want to have some control over the way your business is managed and grows.
