Matt Manero, President of CFF takes you behind the scenes of what his commercial equipment loan specialists have been doing for the past 25 years when someone applies for credit approval. Watch it now:

Deal or No Deal?

At this point, you – the buyer – simply needs to agreed to one of the 3 commercial trucking finance terms, usually based on 100% funding, then you may proceed to the next step in the process.

A few benefits of partnering with CFF over banks, credit unions, or other commercial trucking finance firms include:

  • 100% Financing – CFF finances all add-ons, such as an extended warranty, Service Plan, roadside assistance, taxes, and more
  • No age restriction on all types of equipment
  • Flexible – $10,000 minimum loan amount on up. We’ve financed deals this small up to $1.6 Million and beyond, in single deals
  • Low Rates – CFF interest rates compete with banks, head-to-head, but our process, simplicity and speed to funded deals beats them – hands-down
  • CFF finances customers at all points of the life-cycle, including not just the bigger 5 to 10 truck and up fleets, but also the startups
  • No Hidden Fees – You don’t have to worry about ‘banker language’ used to hide additional fees with CFF. Our programs are simple, you’ll know exactly what you’re getting with our customer-first approach

All of this is probably some of the reasons why CFF has become the most trusted commercial trucking finance company in America – having funded over $1 Billion to far more than 10,000 trucking companies in the last 24+ years.

Once the term has been decided, the CFF loan consultant will request:

  • Driver’s License and
  • Insurance contact information

…and let you know they will communicate the approval to the dealer – or other seller.

NOTE: With CFF, you may purchase commercial trucks and equipment not only from dealers, but also through private party sellers and even auction purchases.

Perform Due Diligence

Your CFF loan consultant will then ensure that you have done due diligence on the truck and if not, agree on a time when you may inspect the vehicle you wish to purchase.

If it’s long distance, and you haven’t inspected the truck, they will give you the option to go inspect the truck before they create loan documents and you would make a second trip – OR – get everything ready to fund – and await your final decision on whether the truck works out for you.

Authorize Funds

You will then call your CFF loan consultant to authorize the release of the funds – which is completing your verbal agreement.

Inform Dealer (Seller)

Next, your CFF loan consultant will reach out to the dealer to inform them that CFF now has a deal in progress, and to request the documents they need to submit a “doc request.”

Remember, all this is happening in as little as 24 business hours, so while we’re detailing the process here, this process is happening quickly – assuming you (the customer) is able to fulfill your part quickly. In other words, performing due diligence, submitting the simple documents outlined here, etc.

CFF funds dealer within 24 hours of receipt of complete packet. The documents that are used at this point include:

  • Signed documents – contracts/docusign & power of attorney – You will sign the contracts

  • Copy of buyer’s order from dealer – Your loan consultant will get a copy of your order from the dealer
