Purpose of This Guide

37D Capital helps business owners, real estate investors, entrepreneurs, operators, builders, developers, contractors, and growing companies explore practical funding options for growth, working capital, expansion, debt consolidation, equipment, marketing, operations, invoice cash flow, purchase order fulfillment, inventory, equipment, leasing, business acquisition, franchise growth, commercial real estate, contractor projects, grants and incentives, innovation, private capital, real estate investment, construction, rental property acquisition, refinancing, and business development.

Funding may be available through direct funding sources, lending relationships, referral partners, brokers, private lenders, institutional lenders, factoring companies, leasing companies, and third-party capital providers. Approval, terms, rates, amounts, timelines, and availability depend on underwriting, business profile, credit profile, revenue, collateral, accounts receivable, customer quality, property type, investor experience, documentation, market conditions, and provider requirements.

37D Capital’s role is to help review the funding need, organize the file, identify possible funding paths, and connect qualified applicants with appropriate funding options through its capital network.

How 37D Capital Helps

  • Helps organize information before a file is submitted to a funding partner.
  • Matches the opportunity to possible funding options based on eligibility and use of funds.

  • Helps prospects understand the differences between credit lines, revenue-based funding, factoring, MCA, purchase order funding, floor plan financing, leasing, real estate investor loans, and refinance options.
  • Provides a professional intake and routing process so applicants do not waste time pursuing options that do not fit their profile.

Not Sure What You Qualify For?

Many business owners are unsure whether they qualify for funding. That is normal. Some funding options focus on credit, some focus on revenue, some focus on invoices, some focus on purchase orders, some focus on real estate, some focus on equipment, and some focus on the strength of a customer contract or private capital opportunity.

37D Capital helps review the situation and identify which path may be realistic before a business owner spends time applying in the wrong place. The goal is to quickly determine whether the best path is credit-based funding, revenue-based funding, factoring, purchase order funding, real estate financing, equipment leasing, grant support, acquisition financing, or another capital strategy.

How the Process Works

Step 1: Complete the 37D Capital intake form

The applicant completes the intake form with basic information about the business, funding need, requested amount, use of funds, timeline, industry, credit estimate, revenue, collateral, property information, purchase order information, inventory information, asset details, or invoice details, depending on the funding request.

Step 2: Initial pre-screen

37D Capital reviews the applicant’s business profile, funding request, funding purpose, time in business, revenue, industry, credit estimate, available collateral, receivables, customer base, real estate ownership, property information, investor experience, purchase orders, inventory, assets, and intended use of funds.

Step 3: Credit review or prequalification

If the file appears potentially eligible, the applicant may be asked to complete a credit authorization, provide a recent credit report, or complete a soft-pull or prequalification step. This helps determine which funding options may be realistic before additional time is spent collecting documents or submitting the file.

Step 4: Product matching

Based on the applicant’s credit profile, revenue, business history, collateral, funding purpose, property type, real estate experience, liquidity, accounts receivable, purchase orders, inventory, customer strength, asset value, and documentation, 37D Capital identifies potential funding options through its capital network.

Step 5: Document collection

Required documents may include bank statements, identification, ownership verification, business documents, credit reports, property information, purchase agreements, appraisals, leases, rent reports, insurance, entity documents, construction budgets, contractor documents, real estate schedules, tax documents, financial statements, accounts receivable aging reports, invoices, customer lists, purchase orders, supplier quotes, inventory lists, equipment invoices, asset valuations, or other underwriting materials.

Step 6: Submission to the appropriate funding provider or partner

Once the file is complete, 37D Capital may submit the opportunity to the appropriate funding provider, lender, broker, factor, leasing company, funder, or capital partner for review.

Step 7: Offer review

If one or more options are available, the applicant reviews the funding amount, cost, terms, repayment structure, fees, conditions, collateral requirements, closing requirements, customer verification requirements, and provider requirements.

Step 8: Closing, verification, and funding

If the applicant accepts an offer and completes all conditions, the funding provider completes final verification, closing, and funding steps.

Factoring with an additional option

Ask about insured non-recourse factoring.

For eligible invoices, we can explore an insurance-supported non-recourse structure. Under the agreed terms, the client does not have to repay the advance solely because an approved invoice remains unpaid for a covered reason.

The protection depends on the client fulfilling its obligations. Instructing the customer not to pay, or creating a situation that causes the invoice not to be paid, can remove that protection. The written factoring agreement and applicable insurance terms define the covered causes of non-payment, invoice eligibility, exclusions, costs and any continuing client obligations.

Tell us about your customers, invoice terms and receivables. We can discuss whether an insured non-recourse option may fit your transaction.
