FAQ
New York Contractor Funding — FAQ
Can a New York contractor get MCA between draw cycles?
Yes. NYC GCs issue draws every 30 days, but prevailing wage labor must be paid bi-weekly. A NYC contractor averaging $150,000/month in deposits may qualify for $112,500–$225,000 within 24 hours to bridge the payroll gap.
Does New York require commercial finance disclosure for contractors?
Yes. New York's CFDL (effective August 1, 2023) requires disclosure of total funded amount, total repayment, finance charge, APR equivalent, term, and prepayment policy before signing. T.A.G. provides CFDL-compliant disclosure on every NY offer. If you receive an NY MCA offer without this disclosure, request it before signing.
Can a New York contractor use MCA for prevailing wage payroll?
Yes. Prevailing wage projects in NY (public works, DOT contracts, MTA projects) require labor rates of $60–$120/hour or more depending on trade. MCA is one of the only capital sources fast enough to bridge the gap between GC draws and bi-weekly prevailing wage payroll obligations.
Can a New York contractor use MCA for Upstate CHIPS Act semiconductor construction?
Yes. The CHIPS Act semiconductor facility construction in Central and Western NY (GlobalFoundries expansion, proposed Micron facility near Syracuse) is creating massive subcontractor demand through 2027+. These projects have milestone-based draw schedules that create significant working capital gaps. MCA can bridge milestone gaps for Upstate NY contractors working on fab construction.
How fast can a New York contractor get funded?
Most NY contractor applications receive a decision within 2–4 hours. NYC contractors submitting complete files before noon Eastern time are eligible for same-day wire funding.
