Find Better Deals. Kill Bad Ones Fast. Close More.

A business filing for a new liquor license is committed to a build-out and opening date. They need construction and fit-out financing 90–120 days before opening while few brokers are watching ABC board filings.

Cannabis operators are shut out of traditional banking. Your private lenders are their only option. A newly approved license means a certain, large capital need with almost no competition for the relationship.

A CO means the build-out is done and the business is about to open. This is when working capital for inventory, staffing, and launch costs is most urgent. A stronger signal than a building permit alone, from the same public source.

A new commercial property owner faces immediate capital needs, renovations, tenant build-outs, and operating reserves, all within 30 days of closing. No CoStar subscription required.

A contractor applying for a surety bond above their current capacity has just won or is about to win a project bigger than anything they've done before. That growth jump almost always needs working capital to bridge.

A contractor upgrading to an unlimited license can now bid $5M+ projects instead of $500K ones. A doctor or dentist opening a second location needs equipment financing. Public board filings give you weeks of lead time before anyone else calls.

A company importing its first overseas container faces a 60–90 day cash gap before those goods can be sold. That's a purchase-order or inventory financing opportunity hiding in plain sight in public shipping records.

In states requiring franchise registration, paperwork is filed 60–90 days before the store opens. Find franchisees committed to a new location before their construction loan is already placed.

A new LLC alone is a weak signal. But a new entity that also files a building permit or liquor license within 90 days is a funded entrepreneur launching a new concept. This is a much higher-quality lead than either signal on its own.

Federal bankruptcies, active civil suits, and money judgments. A Chapter 11 filing or a six-figure judgment against the business or its principals is typically an automatic decline. This surfaces it in seconds.

The majority of commercial disputes (e.g., unpaid vendors, lease defaults, contractor conflicts) are litigated at the state level. PACER alone misses most of them. State court search is the most common gap in manual due diligence.

Federal and state tax liens are publicly recorded and immediately visible to any lender. Outstanding tax obligations create senior claims that subordinate your lender's collateral position, often making the deal unplaceable.

A business that has lost good standing, missed annual filings, or been administratively dissolved cannot legally enter into contracts or secure financing. Basic but often overlooked in rushed deal sourcing.

Federal debarment bars a business or its principals from any government contract or federally-funded project. Especially critical when the deal was sourced from a government contract win. A debarred borrower has no valid contract to fulfill.
