Equipment financing
Your paving crew just landed a county resurfacing bid, but the compactor you're leasing broke down. Rental quotes are double what you budgeted, and the job starts Monday. You need $35,000 by week's end. Walking into Raven Advances, you learn that equipment financing applications move faster than traditional bank queues, especially when a broker already knows which lenders serve Palm Beach County contractors and stock the right programs.
That scenario plays out weekly across West Palm Beach, Riviera Beach, and Greenacres. The business funding application process feels opaque until you see the checklist. Below is exactly what to do next.
Action one: Gather three months of business bank statements, your most recent tax return (business and personal if you're a sole proprietor), and a driver's license. If you're pursuing SBA 7(a) loans, add your business plan and interim profit-and-loss statement. For invoice factoring, pull your aged receivables report instead.
Action two: Call (561) 726-1193 or stop by our Centrepark Drive office in West Palm Beach. Describe your funding amount, purpose (payroll bridge, real estate down payment, inventory restock), and timeline. We ask about revenue, time in business, and industry because lenders weight those factors differently.
Action three: We pre-screen your profile against our lender network. A restaurant in North Palm Beach seeking a business line of credit fits different programs than a logistics company in Lake Park applying for working capital.
Action four: Receive your lender matches, usually within one business day. Review terms side by side. No pressure, no obligation. If a program feels wrong, we pivot.
Once you accept a match, the lender orders credit reports, verifies bank deposits, and may request lease agreements or supplier invoices. Turnaround varies: equipment financing often closes in 48 hours, while commercial real estate loans take three to six weeks for appraisal and title work. We stay in the loop, chase missing documents, and translate lender requests so nothing stalls.
Approvals trigger final paperwork review. You sign, funds wire to your account, and we follow up to confirm receipt. Brokers earn compensation from lenders, so West Palm Beach businesses pay no application or broker fees out of pocket.
Qualifying
Bring these to 1801 Centrepark Dr E or have them ready when you call:
1. Three months of business bank statements (all pages, even blank ones). 2. Previous year's business tax return (1120, 1120-S, or Schedule C). 3. Year-to-date profit-and-loss statement if you're midyear. 4. Copy of a voided business check or bank letter.
Palm Beach County businesses in seasonal trades (marine services, landscaping) should also bring prior-year statements to show revenue cycles. Lenders adjust underwriting when they see your high season isn't reflected in recent months.
Submitting a business funding application through Raven Advances does not obligate you to accept any offer. You review terms, ask questions, and decide. If rates or repayment schedules don't fit your cash flow, walk away or wait for better options. We're brokers, not lenders, so our role is matching and transparency, not selling a single product.
