FAQ

Common questions

Straight answers to what Vancouver owners ask most, from a local broker.

Contact Marquette Credit with information about your retail business, your monthly sales, and your financing need. We'll discuss loan options suited to Vancouver retailers, explain what lenders review, and match you with programs that align with your inventory cycles and growth plans without any initial hard credit inquiry.

Retail loan amounts range from a few thousand for short-term inventory purchases to several hundred thousand for store expansions or multi-location growth. Funding size depends on your monthly sales, operating history, and the specific use, with Vancouver's steady consumer base and proximity to Portland supporting diverse retail niches.

Funding timelines vary by loan type. Working capital and inventory loans often fund within a few business days once approved, while larger projects like renovations or equipment purchases may take two to three weeks as lenders verify sales data and finalize terms tailored to retail operations.

Credit requirements differ across lenders. Many retail financing programs emphasize sales performance and inventory management over personal credit, so Vancouver store owners with less-than-perfect credit can still qualify if monthly revenue and business fundamentals are strong and trending positively.

Collateral depends on loan structure. Inventory financing is typically secured by the stock purchased, equipment loans by the assets financed, and some working capital programs require a lien on business assets or receivables. Unsecured options exist for established retailers with strong sales histories.

Lenders typically request several months of bank statements or sales reports, a summary of how you'll use the funds, business tax returns if available, and your lease agreement. Marquette Credit helps Vancouver retail owners organize these documents and present your business effectively to potential funding sources.
