Request a Review →Light Industrial & Warehouse Businesses: What Funding Sources Typically Look At
Businesses that operate from light industrial or warehouse space often finance the building, the equipment inside it, or both. Funding sources look at whether the business owns or leases the space, how specialized the building is and how the operating company's cash flow supports the payment.
Common Financing Uses
- Buying the building the business operates in
- Racking, forklifts and material-handling equipment
- Expanding into additional space
- Working capital for inventory and payroll
Documentation Typically Requested
Property details and any lease, operating company financials, equipment quotes and a summary of how the space is used.
Illustrative Scenario
A fabricator buying its leased building might compare the new payment with current rent and the building's value.
