Frequently asked questions

What's the typical funding range for auto repair businesses in Miami-Dade County?
Auto repair businesses in Miami-Dade County typically qualify for MCA / working-capital advances from $5,000 to $500,000+ depending on monthly revenue, time in business, and credit profile. For exact pre-qualification, run our match wizard at fundnode.co/match.
How fast can a Miami-Dade County auto repair business get funded?
Clean files (consistent revenue, no NSFs, no existing MCAs) typically fund in 24-48 hours via direct lenders like Credibly or OnDeck. SBA paths (via Live Oak Bank or local Florida bank partners) take 30-90 days but offer dramatically cheaper APR (prime + 2.75-4.75%) for qualified merchants.
Do I need to be physically in Miami-Dade County to qualify with a Florida MCA funder?
Direct lenders underwrite to the business entity's state of registration, not the founder's residence. As long as the LLC / S-Corp is registered in Florida (or operates here with a registered DBA), local underwriting applies. Funders comply with the state's commercial-financing disclosure rules that govern offer letters.
What documents will Miami-Dade County funders ask for?
Standard package: last 3-6 months of business bank statements, voided business check, driver's license for the majority owner, and (for industry-specific deals) POS or accounting platform export. Liquor-license acquisitions add the proposed sale contract + state alcohol beverage license documentation.
Are MCA factor rates regulated in Florida?
Florida does not yet have the strict commercial-financing disclosure laws that California, New York, Virginia, and Utah have enacted. Most reputable funders disclose factor rate and APR-equivalent on request even where not mandated.
