Slateshire Finance, a small-business funding service in Sanford, NC, matches your request with funding partners, who review it and make their own decision. It helps owners pick a structure for the expense in front of them, and it does not arrange personal, payday, title, mortgage or SBA loans.
What Slateshire Finance does
We work on six kinds of business funding: working capital, term loans, lines of credit, inventory financing, equipment financing and merchant cash advances. An owner tells us what needs paying and when; we help decide which structure suits it and send the request to funding partners who handle that type of request.
The partner reviews the business, asks for documents, sets any terms and makes the decision. You compare what comes back and choose.
Direct lender, bank or intermediary: where we sit
A direct lender, such as a bank, lends its own money and makes its own credit decision. Slateshire Finance is a broker, not a lender: we do neither. Our job sits before the decision, in shaping the request and sending it to partners whose products fit.
The practical difference for an owner is reach. A bank offers its own products. A request through us can reach partners offering equipment leases, revolving lines and advances as well as term loans, and you see their terms side by side.
How a loan request through us differs from walking into a bank
- You describe the expense once, and the structure is chosen before any partner sees it.
- Several partners may review the same request, rather than one institution.
- Every offer is in the partner's own written terms; we do not set or change them.
- If your own bank already offers what you need on good terms, take it. We would rather say so than send an unneeded request.
