Financed a brand new 2027 Kenworth W900B for a long-term loyal client of ECC. First 2027 financed this year for me, the new model years seem to be coming out early. This client has also referred many deals to ECC. This is always the best compliment we can receive along with those 5-star google reviews to help SEO.
Issues dealt with: a couple revisions to invoice despite detailed instructions being emailed to vendor (obviously not read), 3 emails for banking information which was requested in initial detailed invoice instructions, and a couple revisions to insurance COI but at the end of day it is out the door and funded. I will say it is frustrating when nobody takes pride in their work. What happened to doing the job right, the first time. I understand mistakes happen, but they happen more often that not from people quickly doing something to get off their desk and not reviewing prior to sending. All this does is waste more of everyone’s time.
Vendors you want to speed up payment it helps to complete the invoice as outlined in the detailed instructions. Why? Because lenders require invoices a certain way in order to fund. Help us, help you, please double check your work and read the instructions when sent, I am not typing them for my benefit. I find most invoices require 1 or 2 revisions and even more many times despite detailed instructions are emailed. This solution is better than phoning a broker every day about the fact you haven’t received payment yet.
I triple check the invoices, the COI’s, the documents prior to client signing plus review the complete funding package, so it doesn’t get caught in funding to further delay funding or delay other lender deals being funded. There is nothing worse than not respecting your funding partners time by sending in garbage funding packages. I am glad Equipment Capital Corp doesn’t have that reputation of sending in junk funding packages, we take pride in our work and my name is on the line every deal.
