How a Wholesaler Finalised a $1.2M Business Loan in 7 Days - Bulk Buy Locked, Margins Up

When bank timelines slipped, fast business funding delivered in 7 days—inventory secured at scale, working capital protected, margin improved.

  • Industry: Property development (SPV with director guarantee)

  • Loan type: Private lender first mortgage with cash‑out buffer for adjustments and stamp duty

  • LVR: 65% against independent valuation on the target site

  • Turnaround: Term sheet in 36 hours, unconditional in day 9, settled day 11

  • Location: Greater Melbourne growth corridor

  • Result: Acquisition completed on time, vendors retained, and works program commenced without delay

  • A time‑bound supplier discount required payment within a week, while bank processing delays threatened to miss the window and erode margins.

  • Order pipeline was healthy, but cash‑flow gaps from staggered receivables and rising freight costs made a large, one‑off inventory payment difficult.

  • The business needed fast, statements‑based underwriting and a repayment schedule aligned to receivables to protect working capital.

  • Industry: Wholesale and distribution

  • Facility: Business loan with weekly repayments, early‑payout flexibility

  • Amount: $1.2M funded for bulk inventory and supplier catch‑up

  • Turnaround: Indicative terms in 24–48 hours, funding on Day 7

  • Location: Australia (national supplier network)

  • Result: Bulk order discount secured, inventory position strengthened, and gross margins improved

Scenario

  • A time‑bound supplier discount required payment within a week, while bank processing delays threatened to miss the window and erode margins.

  • Order pipeline was healthy, but cash‑flow gaps from staggered receivables and rising freight costs made a large, one‑off inventory payment difficult.

  • The business needed fast, statements‑based underwriting and a repayment schedule aligned to receivables to protect working capital.

Why and how they came to us

  • Why: Speed and certainty mattered more than marginal rate; a transparent, cash‑flow–assessed facility could fund the bulk buy on time and lift margins.

  • How: A peer referral and a search for fast business funding led to the case‑study page; after a brief discovery call, a lean checklist was issued and valuation/legal prep ran in parallel.

  • Decision: Clear inflow patterns, manageable obligations, and a realistic repayment plan enabled approval and funding within 7 days.

How it happened
  • Day 0: Five‑minute discovery call clarifying purpose (bulk inventory discount, supplier catch‑up) and runway; lean checklist issued: ID/KYC, ABN/ASIC, last 6 months business bank statements, ATO position, aged receivables/payables, top customers.

  • Day 1: Cash‑flow review completed; indicative terms shared with weekly repayment schedule aligned to receivables; borrower accepted the same day.

  • Days 2–3: Bank feeds verified, statement parsing completed (seasonality, inflow stability, concentration risk); legal prepared facility docs in parallel.

  • Day 4–5: Final approval issued with total cost of funds and disbursement plan mapped to supplier timelines; borrower executed documents.

  • Day 7: Funds disbursed per the settlement statement; bulk order paid within the discount window; inventory position and gross margin improved.

This compressed sequence worked because cash‑flow was strong, obligations manageable, and repayments were mapped to receivables—allowing underwriting and legal to run in parallel for a clean 7‑day completion.
