A community, not a city
Driftwood is a census-designated place: a named community the Census Bureau maps for statistics, without its own city government. It covers only about 3.2 percent of the land in ZIP 78619 (U.S. Census Bureau 2020 ZIP code relationship files), so the ZIP figures below describe a wide rural postal area in western Hays County, not the community alone. Census survey estimates for a community this small are not reliable enough to quote, so we use none.

Funding questions that fit this mix
- Makers and wholesalers buy raw materials and finished stock before they sell, which is the job of inventory financing, and they buy production equipment that can secure its own financing.
- Contractors here are less often one-person outfits than elsewhere in the county; about half had five or more employees, so payroll between draws matters.
- Consultants and other one-to-four-person firms usually need a modest line of credit to ride out slow-paying clients more than a large lump sum.

What to gather before you call
- Recent business bank statements (partners often ask for three to six months)

- Current financial statements: profit and loss plus a balance sheet
- A driver's license or passport for each owner
- Details of any loans, leases or advances the business already carries
- A written quote or invoice if the money is for equipment
Each lending partner sets its own list, so treat this as a starting point.
From first call to a partner's decision
- Reach us at (737) 365-4415 or through the contact form. When we call back, the first questions are simple: what the funding is for, how long the business has operated and its rough revenue.
- You hear which options match the need and what a partner will likely want to review. We submit nothing without your approval.
- With your permission, we take the request to lending partners that offer that kind of funding. Each partner reviews it and makes its own credit decision.
