How fast can a Auto Repair business in Arizona get funded?

Lines of credit and merchant cash advances can fund the same day for qualifying Arizona auto repair businesses. Small business loans and equipment financing typically wire in 1–3 business days. SBA loans take 4–10 weeks because of government underwriting.

What credit score does a Arizona auto repair business need?

Minimum FICO depends on the product, not the state: equipment financing starts at 550, small business loans at 580, lines of credit at 600, and SBA loans at 660. Merchant cash advances and A/R financing have no minimum FICO when revenue is strong.

Will applying for a Arizona auto repair loan hurt my credit?
