Landscaping companies / Term loan
For a landscaping company with a project to fund, here is how the 15% cap works on real numbers and when something else fits better.
✓ Checking what you qualify for does not affect your credit score.
At Merchant Fund Express, we publish the terms and thresholds behind this page so you can check your own numbers before you apply.
When a landscaping company has a specific job for the money, such as mowers, trucks and trailers, or a large installation project in the busy season, the cleanest structure is usually one amount and one schedule.
A landscaping company uses a term loan for equipment that scales capacity: another crew truck with trailer, a skid steer, or a large installation project in the season. The return shows in the number of jobs completed per week.
Published terms in one line: $10,000 to $250,000, 12 to 18 months, 0% origination, weekly payments, a 50% discount on remaining interest for a full early payoff, first position only and a cap of 15% of annual revenue; your offer shows the exact amount, term and total cost before you sign. See the business term loan page.
The 15% cap is the number to run first. Take a landscaping company with roughly $70,000 in monthly revenue, which is $840,000 a year:
| Step | Illustration |
|---|---|
| Annual revenue (illustrative) | $840,000 |
| 15% cap on the loan amount | $126,000 |
| A request of | $40,000 |
| Fits under the cap? | Yes |
| Principal alone over 52 weeks | $769 a week (interest and the 12 to 18-month schedule are in your offer) |
Arithmetic on published terms, not an offer. If your request is larger than the cap, a line of credit or a smaller first loan may fit better.
If you already carry a daily-debit advance, see refinancing an existing advance; a term loan has to be in first position.
Yes. A company billing about $70,000 a month can size up to about $126,000 under the 15% cap; the off-season is what to test against. Merchant Fund Express shows the exact amount, schedule and total cost in your offer before you sign.
Weekly. A weekly payment leaves most of each week’s deposits in the account instead of debiting every morning.
A full early payoff earns a 50% discount on the remaining interest.
