Floor Plan Financing
Floor Plan 101
A floor plan is comprised of the following:
•
•
•
•
•
Line of Credit Amount : Credit approved amount for dealer to finance.
Rate: Interest rate charged on the active line of credit.
Term: Length of time a unit can be floorplanned.
Fee: The charge associated with the flooring of the unit.
Reduction amount: principal reduction amount made by the dealer as vehicle
ages past the purchase date.
All of the above are factors determined through the Credit and Lending
process.
• For example, the greater the credit risk, the lower the line of credit.
• Also, a longer fee may correspond to an increased rate.

Floor Plan Financing
Ever heard the term…
“I was so successful selling cars that
I went out of business.”
Why does that happen?
9
Floor Plan Financing
Value of Floor Planning for the Dealer
It happens because every time a dealer sells a car, they
are out of pocket that money until they are paid by the
customer’s lender, which can take weeks
The more cars a dealer sells, the more cash flow he needs
10
Floor Plan Financing
Value of Floor Planning for the Dealer
• Assume the average cash deal is $7,000 and average sales are 8
cars per week
• Each week, the cash flow needs are $56,000 ($7,000 x 8) just for
inventory
• If the customer’s lenders don’t pay for two weeks after the sale, the
dealer will need $112,000 in cash ($7,000 x 8 x2) in their business
just to cover cars, not to mention payroll and other expenses
11
Floor Plan Financing
Value of Floor Planning for the Dealer
• If the dealer successfully grows his sales to 10 cars per week, they
would need $140,000 in cash ($7,000 x 10 x2)
• That is another $28,000 for selling two more cars per week
• That is why growing sales takes money!
12
Floor Plan Financing
Solutions floor planning has to offer the dealer...
• Floor planning is the answer to his real issue; it will provide the cash
flow to grow the business and not stretch the dealer to make payroll
or buy at the next auction
• Floor planning provides the ability to buy at the next auction and keep
the lot full
• Floor planning can improve cash flow and help grow sales

Relationships
What to look for in a relationship?
Trust
• The best relationships are the ones where both parties work to develop trust
• Trust builds confidence in each party
Transparency
• Being open and upfront about goals on both ends
Knowledgeable
• Lenders have a wealth of knowledge in the industry
Anybody can shake somebody’s hand and ask them about the weather, but to
have a true understanding and investment in somebody’s success is what truly
defines a relationship.
