Overview

If your balance sheet is heavy with equipment, receivables, and inventory but your tax returns don't show a clean profit, asset-based lending is usually the right door. We lend against the value of what you own — fleet, machinery, AR, and materials — at advance rates set by appraisal, giving you a larger and cheaper facility than cash-flow lenders will offer.

Best Used For

  • Equipment-heavy contractors and manufacturers
  • Businesses in turnaround or coming off a bad year
  • Companies with large AR concentrations
  • Refinancing expensive short-term debt into a real facility

How It Works

  1. Step 1
    Collateral review

    We build a borrowing base from your AR aging, inventory, and equipment schedule.

  2. Step 2
    Appraisal

    Third-party valuation sets advance rates, typically 85% AR, 50% inventory, 70% equipment OLV.

  3. Step 3
    Facility in place

    Revolving availability that grows as your collateral grows.

What You'll Need

  • 2+ years in business
  • Hard collateral: AR, inventory, equipment, or real estate
  • Monthly financial reporting capability
  • AR aging, inventory report, and equipment schedule
Pricing

Typically SOFR + 4% – 9% depending on collateral quality and reporting.
