Construction Factoring – Fast Cash Flow for Contractors
Running a construction business often means waiting 30, 60, or even 90 days for clients to pay invoices. Construction factoring gives contractors and subcontractors immediate working capital by turning unpaid invoices into cash.
What is Construction Factoring?
Construction factoring is a financing solution where a factoring company purchases your outstanding invoices and advances you most of the invoice value upfront. Instead of waiting weeks for payment, you get funds within 24–48 hours.
This helps contractors, builders, and suppliers:
Pay employees and subcontractors on time
Cover material and equipment costs
Take on new projects without funding delays
How Does Construction Factoring Work?
You complete work and issue an invoice to your client.
A factoring company purchases the invoice.
You receive an advance (typically 80–95%) within days.
Once your client pays, the factor releases the remaining balance minus a small fee.
📌 Unlike loans, factoring does not create debt. It’s a sale of receivables, not borrowed money.

Benefits of Construction Factoring

- No Debt Added: It’s not a loan, so no long-term liabilities.
- Flexible Funding: The more invoices you have, the more funding is available.
- Credit Protection: Factors often check your clients’ credit, reducing your risk.
- Pay Obligations On Time: Meet Payroll and taxes, pay suppliers, take on larger jobs.
