Frequently Asked Questions

Questions business owners ask before a funding review.

What documents do lenders need for business funding?

Most lenders request bank statements, business information, owner identification, revenue details, and documents tied to the specific funding product. Traditional products may require tax returns, financial statements, debt schedules, leases, invoices, purchase orders, equipment quotes, or property documents. A complete file usually receives a cleaner review.

How fast can a business get funded?

Funding speed depends on the product, documentation, underwriting depth, and whether the file is complete. Some working capital reviews can move quickly, while SBA, commercial real estate, construction, and bank products can take longer. Complete documents, accurate information, and prompt responses help reduce delays.

How do lenders review bank statements?

Lenders review bank statements to understand deposits, average balances, cash flow consistency, overdrafts, NSFs, existing payments, and revenue quality. Bank statements help underwriters verify operating activity and repayment capacity. They may look for recurring deposits, large unusual withdrawals, excessive cash deposits, negative days, and payment obligations already hitting the account.
