Lines of credit
A business line of credit functions like a corporate credit card: you receive an approved limit, withdraw funds as required, pay interest only on the amount you use, and replenish the line as you repay. This structure suits businesses facing uneven revenue cycles or unexpected expenses. Foothill Advances works as a broker, presenting your file to multiple lenders to secure terms that align with your operation, whether you run a design studio along Main Street or a service contractor serving the neighborhoods between 14 Mile and Maple.
Why us
Clawson's compact commercial corridor near 14 Mile Road and Main Street hosts creative agencies, specialty retailers, and professional-service firms that often juggle project-based income or seasonal demand. A line of credit bridges the gap when a client payment arrives late or when you need to stock inventory ahead of a busy quarter. Because Foothill Advances understands the local economy in Clawson, we help you articulate how your cash-flow pattern justifies revolving credit rather than a fixed term loan.
We gather your financial statements, receivables aging, and business plan, then present your profile to lenders experienced in Michigan small-business lending. A Clawson bakery supplying cafés across Oakland County, for example, might draw on a line to purchase flour and packaging before holiday orders, then pay down the balance after invoices clear. We guide you through documentation, compare offers, and coordinate closing so you keep your attention on daily operations.

When does a line of credit make more sense than a term loan? Choose a line when expenses are irregular or you want standby funds for opportunities. Term loans suit one-time purchases like equipment, while a line covers recurring or unpredictable needs without locking you into a fixed draw.
Can Clawson startups qualify for a business line of credit? Lenders typically require at least one year of revenue history and consistent cash flow. Newer companies may start with a smaller limit or secured line. Foothill Advances shops your file to lenders willing to work with emerging businesses.
