How fast can a Physical Therapy business in South Carolina get funded?
Lines of credit and merchant cash advances can fund the same day for qualifying South Carolina physical therapy businesses. Small business loans and equipment financing typically wire in 1–3 business days. SBA loans take 4–10 weeks because of government underwriting.

Manu's network includes SBA-preferred lenders that fund in South Carolina.
What credit score does a South Carolina physical therapy 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 South Carolina physical therapy loan hurt my credit?
No. Pre-qualification uses a soft credit pull that does not affect your score. A hard pull only happens if you accept a final offer from a lender.
