How it works
Call (706) 963-2915 and talk to a broker. We ask about your business, how long you've been operating, what you need the money for, and your monthly revenue. Most Athens business owners spend ten minutes on this first conversation. We serve the entire Classic City corridor, from the manufacturing shops along Jennings Mill Road in Bogart to the restaurants on Broad Street and the retail clusters in Watkinsville. After the call, we know which lenders to approach.
Qualifying
Three items move things fastest: bank statements from the past three months, a driver's license, and a voided business check. If you're after SBA 7(a) loans, add two years of tax returns and a profit-and-loss statement. For equipment financing, a quote or invoice for the machinery helps. Hull and Winterville contractors often send photos of the equipment they want to buy. We don't need everything perfect on day one. Send what you have, and we'll tell you if lenders need more.
We shop your file to multiple lenders within 24 hours. You don't fill out ten applications or call ten banks. We handle that. Lenders come back with term sheets, usually within two to five business days. We explain each offer in plain language: how much, the payback schedule, and what collateral they want. You pick the one that works, or you walk away. No pressure. Athens business owners from Colbert to Nicholson to Arnoldsville have used this process for working capital, commercial real estate, and invoice factoring.
Talking to us costs nothing. If no lender says yes, you owe nothing. If you get matched to a lender and decide the terms don't fit, you stop. We're a broker, not a lender, so we don't hold your loan or set the rates. Our job is matching Athens-area businesses to the right capital source. Call (706) 963-2915 at 1551 Jennings Mill Rd, Bogart, GA 30622, Athens, GA, or visit our contact page for directions. Crawford and Arnoldsville clients often stop by on their way into Athens.
