How it works

How to Apply for Business Funding in Cambridge

Timberfield Financial streamlines the business funding application so Cambridge companies spend less time on paperwork and more time running operations. You start with a ten-minute phone consultation at (617) 545-7807, where we identify your funding need, timeline, and preferred loan structure. We then match your profile to commercial lenders who serve Cambridge and nearby Somerville, Watertown, and Belmont businesses. Most applicants see initial term sheets within two business days.

Qualifying

What Documents Speed Up Your Application

Basic financials accelerate every commercial loan application. Bring your last two years of business tax returns, three months of bank statements, a current balance sheet, and a brief use-of-funds summary. Cambridge businesses applying for SBA 7(a) loans should also gather personal financial statements and a lease or deed if real estate secures the loan. Equipment invoices help when you pursue equipment financing, and aged receivables reports matter for invoice factoring. The more complete your packet, the faster lenders in the Kendall Square and Harvard Square corridors can underwrite.

What Happens After You Submit Your Application

Once Timberfield Financial receives your documents at our 1 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02142 office, we package your file and distribute it to matched lenders within 24 hours. Lenders review, request clarifications if needed, and issue preliminary terms. You compare offers side by side, choose the best fit for your Cambridge operation, and we coordinate closing. From application to funding typically spans 7 to 21 days for working capital and business lines of credit, longer for commercial real estate transactions. No lender pays Timberfield Financial until you close, so our only incentive is speed and fit. Visit our Cambridge business loans hub or contact us to start your application today.
