Route 110 and the hamlet around it

Huntington Station, once called Fairground, takes its name from the railroad station. It is a census-designated place in the Town of Huntington, part of the Greater Huntington area, and it was the birthplace of the poet Walt Whitman; his home in neighboring South Huntington is now a museum. Across Route 110 from that museum sits the Walt Whitman Shops, a large mall.

That mix is worth thinking about as a business owner. A mall and a state route draw traffic and set a high bar for storefront presentation, while the blocks behind it run on independent shops, salons, restaurants and trades that depend on repeat local customers. Both sides need cash before the customer arrives: lease, stock, staff and signage all come first.

Three questions we ask before suggesting an amount

What exactly is the gap?

Name it in dollars: a slow-season payroll, a deposit on equipment, an inventory order before a busy weekend. A specific gap is easier to size than a general wish for a cushion.

When does cash come back?

Retail and food businesses turn cash within days. Contractors, medical billers and wholesalers wait weeks. The longer the wait, the more the funding needs to carry you in the meantime.

Is it a one-time need or a recurring one?

A single repair or build-out is a one-time need. A business that runs short every winter has a seasonal pattern, and it is better to plan for that pattern than to fund each shortfall as an emergency.

Terms you can count on

Funding runs from $25,000 to $5,000,000 and can arrive in as little as 24 hours after the 5-minute application. We consider FICO scores of 500 and up, start with a soft credit pull, and ask for about three months of business bank statements rather than tax returns. Sole proprietors can apply.

Common Questions

Does a nearby mall change what funders look for?

Not directly. We look at your own deposits and bank statements. A strong location can show up as steadier deposits, but the review is about your business, not your neighbors.

I operate in Huntington Station but live in another town. Can I apply?

Yes. The business is what we evaluate. List where the business operates and provide statements for the business account.

Can a one-person shop apply?

Yes, sole proprietors can apply. You do not need to be incorporated.

What does a soft credit pull mean for my score?

A soft pull is the first look and does not count as a hard inquiry on your credit report.

How soon could funds arrive?

Funding can arrive in as little as 24 hours after you complete the 5-minute application and your statements are in. Timing depends on how quickly the documents arrive.
