Funding to Close Business Acquisition Deals

Acquisition Finance Platform

Funding To Close Business Acquisition Deals

A signed LOI does not close a deal. Capital closes deals. Most acquisitions fail in the last mile because the buyer has a funding plan but no funding execution. Financely is built for this stage: lender-ready deal packaging, structured capital routing, and fast closing coordination.

If your priority is fast funding to buy a business, financing for a business acquisition with LOI, or bridge financing for a business purchase, this page lays out our procedure and scope. You can review our broader model on How It Works and our transaction scope on What We Do.

We run a transaction desk, not a theory desk. Our platform is designed for acquirers, independent sponsors, search fund operators, and family office backed buyers who need speed and decision-grade documentation.

Target use case: active transaction, signed LOI or APA, defined closing date, and a clear need for debt, bridge, or equity gap coverage.

What We Solve For Business Acquirers

Capital Gap At Signing

Buyer has a valid target and clear thesis, but senior debt alone does not meet total uses.

Compressed Closing Timelines

Seller expects close in weeks, while traditional channels move slowly without a clean lender package.

Fragmented Funding Stack

Senior lender, seller note, rollover equity, and bridge terms are not aligned in one executable structure.

Process Risk

Deal teams lose time answering repetitive credit questions because materials were not built for decision committees.

Closing speed comes from structure, documentation quality, and active condition management. It does not come from aggressive promises.

Quick Closing Procedure From LOI To Close

Our platform follows a defined quick close acquisition finance procedure with target service windows. Each window depends on file quality, counterparty response times, and diligence complexity.

Stage Target Window Output
1) Intake And Mandate Review 24 Hours Feasibility screen, data request list, and timeline map for funding to close the acquisition.
2) Structure Design 48 to 72 Hours Capital stack draft covering senior debt, bridge layer, seller participation, and equity gap logic.

6) Closing Coordination Deal Specific Document list control, final condition clearance, and transaction close support with counsel and counterparties.

Typical Capital Stack For Business Purchase Funding

Layer Purpose Common Use In Acquisition Deals
Senior Debt Core purchase funding Primary financing base tied to target cash flow and collateral coverage.
Bridge Capital Close timing gaps Used when sponsor equity timing and lender draw timing do not match.
Seller Participation Align economics Seller note or deferred component to support close and reduce cash pressure at signing.
Equity Layer Risk capital Sponsor, co-investor, family office, or independent sponsor equity contribution.

Who This Service Is Built For

Our strongest fit includes buyers with signed LOI or APA, clear purchase economics, and near-term closing pressure. This includes independent sponsor acquisition financing mandates, search fund acquisition financing requests, and lower middle market buyout teams requiring fast capital path support.

For active transactions that are ready for structured review, you can also start through our deal submission channel.

Important: no advisor can promise final lender approval in advance. Approvals depend on underwriting, legal documentation, compliance checks, and counterparty quality.
