    First Pos funder doesn't look at data Merch

    Any first pos funders that review financials and credit alone?

    Have a merchant that has no defaults but is getting hit on datamerch for lowering payments etc.. on a previous biz etc. and has a bunch of UCC's but no Defaults or judgements.

    He is in Ca and received a LOC from BV in JAN

    If they were simply on lower payments and then paid them off they should have proof.

    Most funders will ask for a Zero Balance Letter. Whos to say they didn't settle for a smaller amount? Or maybe they bounced a lot of payments.

    Get yourself a ZBL and just be prepared. Praying funders turn a blind eye wont benefit you or the Merchant

    I appreciate your insight. It could be he did bounce a lot.. I don't believe my job as a broker is to do a deep dive over here. I am not looking for a blind eye. I am asking if there are funders that focus on credit and financials.. Datamerch isn't the be-all end-all of underwriting... especially when its been proven dozens of times to have inaccurate information.

    Depending on who you're going to, they will inquire with the Merchant about their previous MCA history and may require the ZBL.

    California, 1st position, spotty payment history, the odds are against you unless you come up with proof it's paid in full.

    If all else fails you can try those "funders" that spam the threads saying they can fund it but you never see them in a statement.

    Did the merchant lowered payment and make all those lowered payments fine until paid in full? If thats the case someone should be able to price this deal based off the daily they were able to handle.
