The majority of the loans we provide require no down payment. There are some programs that require a small down payment. The exact amount required varies and is determined by numerous factors, including business credit, personal credit, time in business, depth of credit, revenue, profit, cash reserves, and many others.

There are virtually unlimited kinds of commercial equipment out there, and we finance them all. It is extremely rare for us to reject any type of equipment.  If it is legal in your jurisdiction, we can finance it.

Definitely! We know that most businesses experience a rough patch at one point or another and are sometimes not able to pay their bills on time. We love to help businesses recover from tough situations. Many of our long-term clients started off with various situations that caused them to be turned down by several banks prior to us providing the financing they needed. We use risk-based pricing, which allows at-risk businesses to get money when they need it most.

In a lot of cases, the only document we require is a driver’s license. If you are not able to provide bank statements or tax returns, we can still help you obtain your loan. Talk to your loan officer about your unique situation.

We do them all! There are simply too many options to list. If it is business related financing, the chances are we can help you. Talk to your loan officer about your unique situation.

Some of the financing we provide qualifies for section 179 tax breaks. We do not provide tax advice and strongly recommend talking to your CPA about your particular situation. Your loan officer can then answer any questions you or your CPA may have, in order to help determine the best financing options for your company.

Banks tend to have complex guidelines that are designed to help only very strong, low-risk businesses. While we provide these types of loans as well – and typically at a rate lower than your local bank – we also have an extremely diverse portfolio of programs that are risk-based and individually tailored. This means we can almost always help you when your bank cannot.

 We literally have hundreds of programs. Each one is specifically designed to fit particular credit scenarios or equipment types. There is no one best loan option that works for every situation.

We are not owned by the bank that referred you to us. Many banks know they cannot help every client because of the highly restrictive guidelines under which banks are forced to operate. Sometimes the only way the loan officer or your bank can help you is by referring you to our company. We are honored every time a competitor refers their client to us.
