Most working-capital and equipment placements close in 3–10 business days. Larger ABL, bridge, and CRE structures take 2–6 weeks depending on diligence scope. Summit prioritizes Burlington and adjacent VT operators alongside national deal flow with no regional queue.
For most restaurants placements: three to six months of business bank statements, a one-page application, government ID, and (for larger facilities) the most recent business tax return and an AR aging or equipment schedule. Soft-pull only until an offer is selected.
