## Why North Carolina Restaurants Get Turned Down for Financing

Banks weren't built for restaurants. We were. These are the obstacles we clear every day for North Carolina operators.

### Bank Turndowns

Past credit hits or short time in business shouldn't lock you out. We cover all credit tiers, including prior bankruptcy.

### Slow Underwriting

A 3-minute phone diagnosis and 60-second pre-qual replace weeks of paperwork delays at a traditional bank.

### Used-Equipment Limits

Dealer financing caps out on older gear. We fund used equipment outside standard age and hour limits — including private-party.

### Seasonal Cash Gaps

Coastal operators face steep winter drops. Working capital terms calibrated to your revenue curve, not a flat assumption.

Got Questions?

## Restaurant Financing FAQs for NC Operators

Can I get restaurant financing with bad credit or a past bankruptcy?

Yes. We cover all credit tiers, including startups and prior Chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy. Lower credit profiles typically require a larger down payment or higher rate in exchange for approval access, but we work to find a path where banks won't.

How fast can I get funded?

Working capital can close in as little as 1 to 3 days, and equipment financing is often funded in under a week. It starts with a 60-second pre-qualification and a three-minute phone diagnosis, then DocuSign closings.

Can you finance used restaurant equipment?

Yes. We finance used and older equipment that falls outside standard dealer age and hour limits, including auction and private-party purchases. Get approved once and buy from any dealer, auction, or private seller.

What are the requirements for working capital?

Working capital requires at least 1 year in business, a minimum of $150,000 in yearly revenue, and a 600 minimum credit score. There's no personal collateral required and zero out-of-pocket fees.

How much can I finance?

Deal sizes range from $5,000 to $5 million. Working capital loans run from $5,000 to $250,000 with terms up to 18 months.
