Craft3 funds construction for growing businesses and vital nonprofits.
Craft3 supports entrepreneurs at every step of the loan application process. Note that obtaining a business loan is a more involved and lengthier process than taking out a home mortgage.
Loans up to $250,000 can be funded as fast as 30 days. Larger loans typically take longer.
When you’re ready to apply, complete this online form to help us learn about you and your business. If it looks like a potential fit, a Craft3 lender will reach out to talk with you about your business plan, uses of funds and collateral.
A Craft3 lender will invite you to apply and help you complete your loan application package. We will review your application and give your request the careful attention it deserves.
NOTE: Review usually takes 1-2 weeks, although it can be shorter or longer depending on the size and complexity of the request.
If we think we can help you with your request, we will notify you and outline the terms of the loan and the items, if any, we need for underwriting a final loan decision. After that we quickly move to closing and disbursement.
We consider your whole story, not just your credit score.
Work with a real person who understands your community.
We connect you with tools and resources, not just a loan.
Every loan helps grow a more inclusive economy.
