Who Hazelford Funding works with in Gallatin, TN

Owners in Gallatin, TN come from many trades and services, such as contractors and construction trades, restaurants and food service, medical and dental practices and retailers and wholesalers that carry stock. Partners review each request on its own merits.

Paperwork partners commonly ask for

  • The last three to six months of business bank statements
  • Current financial statements: profit and loss plus a balance sheet
  • Government-issued ID for each owner
  • Formation documents and your EIN
  • Details of any loans, leases or advances the business already carries
  • For equipment, the seller's quote with make, model and price

No two partners ask for exactly the same file, so use this as a checklist rather than a rule.

The steps after your first call

  1. You call (615) 576-8011 or send the short request form. When we speak, we go over what the money is for, how long you have been in business and roughly what the business brings in.
  2. We walk through the funding types that suit that purpose and the paperwork partners tend to ask for. Nothing goes out until you say so.
  3. With your permission, we take the request to lending partners that offer that kind of funding. Each partner reviews it and makes its own credit decision.
  4. If a partner makes an offer, you compare the total cost, payment schedule and terms. You are never obligated to accept.
