How to get a hot shot truck loan

Step 1. Make a list of the trucks needed.

Include description, manufacturer, year and model numbers. Have your information on the hot shot trucks you need ready to go.

Have the description, manufacturer, year and model number ready for each tractor trailer truck and trailer.

Look for lenders that specialize in hot shot truck and trailer financing.

Step 2. Contact lenders that finance hot shot truck loans on trucks and trailers that you are looking for or already have.

Tip: Programs lend up to 95% maximum on qualifying trucks and trailers.
The vehicles and trailers must be free and clear. Have the information on the seller ready and whether the seller is a vendor or private party.  It is easier to get approval for financing from a deal than a private party.
Ask about their approval requirements and program options including credit scores, down payment needed, documentation required, time in business and time to close.   Decide which programs are the best match for your business based on the requirements and your own profile.  Give the funder basic information on the trucks and trailers.   Ask what your chances of approval are and if they can pre-qualify you.

Call the lenders that specialize in this financing

Step 3. Provide income verification to strengthen your request.

List the stronger credit owner first because you will increase your chances for approval and also get higher offers.  If your credit score is low but you can make a higher downpayment, tell the lender.
TIP:Higher down payments increase the chance of approval and more favorable terms.

Step 4. Complete application for funding.

If you are approved,  review terms and conditions including down payment requirements, fees and time to close.   If you are not approved contact the lender to discuss available options.

Once you have matched the best program to your profile, complete the application.

Step 5. Request closing documents

Complete all closing stipulations and lender closing call with the customer.
Confirm the funded amount to you as well as when and how your business will receive funds.

Look over all terms and conditions on offers. Consider early payoff options and compare terms on multiple offers. If declined, then apply with other programs. Ask what the decline reasons are and whether your application can be reconsidered if you resolve any decline reasons.
