Why Northwood

The decision and the money come from the same place.

Northwood underwrites every file in-house and funds from our own capital. The people who review your business and the people who wire your money sit in the same room — that's why we're faster, why our terms are cleaner, and why renewals take hours, not weeks.

★★★★★

Our walk-in cooler died on a Thursday. Northwood had $85K in our account Friday afternoon — before the weekend rush. Nobody else even called back.

$400K for a new excavator, funded in two days. I talked to the actual underwriter, not a call center — and the terms he quoted were the terms I signed.

Fuel and payroll don’t wait on freight invoices. The line of credit smooths out our slow weeks, and renewing took one phone call.

FAQ

Plain answers. No fine-print games.

An MCA is not a loan. Northwood purchases a fixed amount of your future receivables at a discount, and you remit a small share of revenue (or a fixed daily/weekly amount) until the purchased amount is delivered. When revenue slows, many of our programs adjust with you.
A factor rate is a fixed multiplier. If you receive $100,000 at a 1.25 factor, you remit $125,000 — that number never grows, no matter how long remittance takes. An interest rate compounds over time. We quote the total cost up front, in dollars, before you sign.
Most complete applications get a decision within a few business hours. Once approved and contracts are signed, funds typically arrive by wire within 24 hours — 72 at the outside for larger or more complex files.
No. We use a soft credit pull at application, which is invisible to other lenders and does not affect your score. A hard pull happens only if you accept an offer, and we tell you before it does.
Yes. Northwood underwrites in-house and funds from its own capital — the person who approves your deal works down the hall from the one who wires it.
The 5-minute application, plus either a secure read-only bank connection or your last 4–6 months of business bank statements. Most businesses with 6+ months of operating history and $20K+ in monthly revenue qualify to apply.
Yes — renewals are our favorite deals. Once you’ve remitted roughly half of your current advance, you’re typically eligible for additional capital, often approved same-day since we already know your business.
