How is revenue-based funding paid back in Colorado?
With revenue-based funding, a Colorado owner takes one sum up front and pays it back out of each month’s sales, so a quiet shoulder season in a mountain town or a roofing crew’s rained-out week sends less. Payments stop when the agreed total is paid back.
Take a Denver restaurant with $70,000 in monthly sales that accepts $35,000 and agrees to repay $44,800. An average month sends $4,200; a month that comes in $21,000 lighter sends $2,940. The dollar cost is $9,800.
