Need to belly up and assume the risk or don't play.You're wasting your time attempting to get non-recourse financing IMO.

I had a very profitable building / developing company that went belly up in 2010.

The temptation to juice the returns by selecting the low-cost supplier will be unbearable.

The lines should only have a small amount of water in them, unless you have a clog or a "belly" (low spot).

I'm not suggesting that its ok for banks to lose money or that they should lose money, but they are much more able, culpable and open-eyed about investments and the risks than some CF mom & pop who put $2,000 into a deal where some investor buys 32 houses then goes belly up.With all the hoopla of real estate investing from 2000 to 2008, if CF for the small investor was available, I'd speculate that many small investors would have gotten burned, probably losing all their investment, even in the non-Ponzi schemes.

We have left a significant amount of buffer so that even if the whole thing goes belly up we can still continue our lives without worry.

It doesn't seem like there is enough juice in the deal to make it worthwhile.

Maybe some kind of bond that would provide short term continuation, and development of export functionality if a company goes belly up, or just decides to shut down or whatever.

@Richard Bell I like how you are thinking about catering to a specific set of your customers to provide added value - I think long term this could be a big boost for your company.

I would meet her at a location (usually a coffee, juice or food spot) and she would drive me around to multiple properties.
