Why flooring contractors in New York City qualify
Flooring contractors in New York City are classified under Flooring Contractors, an eligible category. Industry is therefore not the question; the four things every file is read on are. Commercial work is eligible; residential remodelling is restricted.
The cash-cycle problem
Deposit plus balance on completion for residential; 30-60 day terms on commercial.
In New York City that usually means capital goes to materials for a signed job, vans, tooling, installer crews, showroom stock.
What applies in New York City
New York City runs on the densest small-business market in the country, with rent and payroll costs to match.
New York carries extra restrictions on the revenue-based tier here; the line of credit and term loan are unaffected.
New York winters are hard enough to remove months from the working year, so a flooring contractor account in New York City is read on the twelve-month average rather than the trough.
The published thresholds
Tier 1: 650 FICO, 3 years in business, $300,000 a year or $25,000 a month, 8+ monthly deposits.
Tier 2: 600 FICO, 6 months in business, $60,000 revenue, $800 minimum daily balance.
Renewal: 550 FICO, 2 years in business, once 50% of the original balance is repaid.
There is no hard credit cutoff here. The 650/600/550 tiers are product criteria, not a floor on the business. Scores in the 500s are placed routinely, and files in the 400s are read on revenue, deposit consistency and time in business rather than on the score alone.
