Shelf Corporations with Corporate Credit

ASE Weekly Takeoff - March 31, 2025

Mar 31, 2025

Hello freinds,

Hope you're doing well. I wanted to quickly share details about our US Shelf Corporations/LLCs program for clients looking to access $300K–$500K in corporate credit—often in under 30 days.

These are aged LLCs (3 years backdated) that come with no liabilities and no active debt and are set up specifically to help you fast-track capital access for M&A or CRE deals.

Key Features:

Setup cost: $15K–$18K
Average funding: $300K–$500K within 30 days
90% of the process is done for you.
No prior clients or ongoing liability
$0 balance on all debt (fully paid tradelines)
Options available in all 50 states
Excellent PAYDEX scores and clean history
Used for business lines of credit, not vendor stack

FAQs Answered:

Q: What type of entity is it?

A: These are fully formed LLCs with 3+ years of history and EINs. Structurally tailored based on your outcome.

Q: What states are they in?

A: All 50 states available, matched based on your banking and compliance needs.

Q: Can I use one to buy a business?

A: Yes! Shelf LLCs can lend to DBAs and fund business purchases. Multiple shelf corps can be owned.

Q: Interest rates?

A: Typically ~2 points above prime (bank-specific terms apply).

Q: Any liabilities?

A: None. All tradelines are paid. Any existing payment history is current and backdated accordingly.

Q: Are these shells?

A: No. These are shelf corporations (aged LLCs), not shells—there is nothing hidden or deceptive here.

Q: Does credit show as vendor lines?

A: No. The LOC appears as a fixed lease-based credit facility, not an aggregate vendor stack.

Q: Can a Canadian buy one?

A: Yes—just need an ITIN.

Q: Is $300K minimum guaranteed?

A: Not guaranteed—client execution is essential. The only way to miss the mark is by not completing required action items.

Q: Can I use all credit for M&A/CRE?

A: Yes, subject to DSCR and lender approval.

Q: Do they furnish data?

A: Yes, fully FED-compliant data furnishing is in place for tradeline reporting.
