Premier Rental Purchase franchise in Pennsylvania: what the public record shows
Franchisees of Premier Rental Purchase in Pennsylvania have taken 8 SBA loans since 1991 (average $188,875)— too few resolved loans in-state to publish a local failure rate (we require a resolved cohort, never extrapolate), so the brand's national rate of 45.5% is the better guide.
