\n \t\t\tHow We Get You The Best Deal<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t

We Shop The Loan. You Get The Best Terms.<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

VFC doesn\u2019t represent one lender. We represent you.<\/strong>Every deal goes through a competitive sourcing process across our lender network \u2014 which is exactly how we secure rates and terms that aren\u2019t available when you walk in alone.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n\t\t
\n \t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

The process starts with preparing your financials correctly<\/strong>\u2014 tax returns, P&Ls, balance sheets, debt schedules, and supporting documentation packaged the way lenders want to see them. This step alone moves deals from declined<\/em>to approved<\/em>more often than any other intervention.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

From there, we shop the deal across commercial banks, SBA lenders, private credit funds, and specialty lenders<\/strong>\u2014 soliciting term sheets from multiple sources simultaneously. With competing offers in hand, we negotiate the structure: rate, term, amortization, prepayment, covenants, and personal guarantee scope<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

The right loan isn\u2019t the lowest headline rate. It\u2019s the one with the right structure for your situation<\/em>\u2014 and that\u2019s what comes out of a competitive sourcing process run by people who understand both sides of the table.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t\tTwo Real Client Engagements<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Different Situations. Different Loans. Same Coordinated Sourcing Process.<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Two real VFC engagements that illustrate how the work changes shape depending on the client\u2019s situation. The first was about reversing prior declines.<\/strong> The second was about engineering a smarter structure than any single lender offered.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n \t\t\tCase Study 01 \u00b7 Business Expansion Financing<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t

$3M Expansion Loan. Two Prior Declines. Approved Through VFC In Seven Days.<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

The client owns a regional services business approaching a major expansion opportunity. They needed $3M to acquire a competitor, integrate the operation, and fund the working capital needed for the combined business<\/strong>. They\u2019d already been declined by their existing bank and a regional lender they\u2019d been referred to.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

The issue wasn\u2019t the business. The financials were strong<\/strong>\u2014 consistent revenue growth, healthy margins, low existing debt. The issue was how the package had been presented to the prior lenders. The tax returns hadn\u2019t been reconciled against the internal financials cleanly, the personal guarantee scope hadn\u2019t been framed correctly, and the projections for the combined entity hadn\u2019t been built out to the standard a senior credit officer expects to see.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

VFC rebuilt the financial package end-to-end: tax-return reconciliation, combined pro-forma financials, integration roadmap, debt-service coverage modeling, and a properly structured term-sheet request<\/strong>. The deal was then shopped across four lenders in our network simultaneously. Three returned competitive term sheets within five business days.<\/em>The final structure closed at favorable terms with a tier-one commercial bank.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

Total time from VFC engagement to approval: seven days.<\/strong>The capital deployed on schedule, the acquisition closed, integration ran cleanly, and the combined business is now generating significantly higher revenue and EBITDA than either entity produced separately. This is what proper loan packaging combined with active sourcing across competing lenders looks like.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n \t\t\tCase Study 02 \u00b7 Equipment & Inventory Financing<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t

$1.5M Manufacturing Expansion. Hybrid SBA + Asset-Backed Structure. Lower Blended Cost Than Any Single Lender Offered.<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

The client owns a mid-sized regional manufacturer that needed $1.5M to acquire new CNC equipment and expand inventory<\/strong>to fulfill a major upcoming contract. Profitable business, healthy growth trajectory, clean balance sheet. The client\u2019s primary bank had already approved them \u2014 but the terms weren\u2019t right for the business.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<\/div>\n

\n \t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

The bank had offered $1.5M at 10.25% on a five-year fully amortizing term loan<\/strong>. On paper, the deal was done. In practice, the monthly debt service would have consumed nearly half of the operating cash flow during the expansion ramp \u2014 precisely when the business needed working capital most. An approval at the wrong structure is still the wrong outcome.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

VFC\u2019s analysis identified the core issue: bundling equipment and inventory into a single term loan was the wrong structure entirely<\/strong>. The CNC equipment had a 20-year useful life and deserved long-duration financing. The inventory needs were revolving and deserved a line that could scale with stock levels. Two completely different durations and risk profiles were being forced into one inflexible product because that\u2019s what the bank had on the shelf.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

VFC restructured the entire financing into a coordinated hybrid: a $900K SBA 504 loan for the equipment at 6.85% amortized over 20 years<\/strong>, paired with a $600K asset-backed revolving line for inventory at 7.25% that scales with stock levels<\/strong>. The blended cost came in materially lower than the bank\u2019s single-product offer, the monthly debt service was cut nearly in half, and the working capital was preserved through the entire expansion ramp. The contract was fulfilled, revenue scaled cleanly, and the business absorbed the new capital without strain.<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
