When you contact a business loan broker in Richmond, the first call determines whether your file moves forward or stalls. Dawn Funding Group walks you through exactly what underwriters need before your application lands on their desk, so you spend less time gathering paperwork and more time running your business. Call (510) 751-0901 to talk to an advisor who explains the approval path in plain language.
How it works
Our office sits at 1734 Solano Ave, Berkeley, CA 94707, serving Richmond, North Richmond, San Pablo, El Cerrito, El Sobrante, Tara Hills, Kensington, Pinole, Hercules, San Rafael, and Rodeo. We keep broker hours Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific. The fastest way to get a loan quote is by phone at (510) 751-0901). If you're driving from the Hilltop District or Point Richmond, plan for about ten minutes via I-80 or San Pablo Avenue.
No email address is published. We handle sensitive financial documents through secure channels discussed during your initial call, not through open inboxes.
Get in touch
Underwriters approve files that tell a complete story in the first submission. Before you call to get a loan quote, gather three months of business bank statements, your most recent tax return (personal and business if you're a pass-through entity), and a rough sense of how much capital you need and what it will fund. If you're refinancing equipment or real estate, note the original purchase price and current balance. Richmond manufacturers along Cutting Boulevard and service businesses near Macdonald Avenue often already have these documents on hand; pulling them before the call cuts your timeline by days.
We broker SBA 7(a) loans, working capital, equipment financing, commercial real estate, business lines of credit, invoice factoring, and more. Each program requires slightly different documentation, which we'll map out during your first conversation.

How it works
After you contact a business loan broker in Richmond, expect a 15-minute discovery conversation. We'll ask about your revenue, time in business, credit profile, and use of funds. Then we match your file to the lenders most likely to approve it and outline the documents they require. You'll know within that first call whether your scenario fits conventional SBA 7(a) structures, alternative working-capital products, or something in between.
Once documents arrive, we package your file with the underwriter-transparent narrative that moves approvals forward. Most Richmond clients who call prepared receive initial feedback within 48 hours.
