A business line of credit is a revolving pool of capital you can draw against, pay down, and draw against again — the commercial-lending equivalent of a credit card, but with real rates and real limits. Marquette Capital Group opens lines of credit for Aurora businesses from $25K to $2M.
This is the right tool for uneven cash flow: covering payroll before a big receivable clears, funding inventory before a season, or bridging gaps between contract milestones. You pay interest only on what's drawn — not on the full commitment.
We offer both unsecured lines (based on business cash flow alone) and asset-based lines (secured by receivables or inventory, with higher limits and lower rates). We'll tell you which structure your business qualifies for on the first call.
“Lines of credit are excellent standby capital but poor long-term financing. If you're funding a fixed asset with a 10-year life, use a term loan. If you're funding a working-capital gap that recurs, a line is exactly right. Rates typically run prime + 2% to prime + 8% depending on structure and credit.”
Unsecured is faster to open and doesn't tie up your assets, but limits are lower and rates a bit higher. Secured (asset-based) lines are cheaper, offer bigger limits, and are typical when you carry meaningful receivables or inventory.
Higher limits, lower rates, and access to cash (not just card swipes). A credit card is for T&E and small purchases; a line of credit is a real working-capital tool.
Under 12 months in business, unsecured lines are hard to place. We may recommend a working-capital loan or revenue-based advance for the first year and open a proper line when your revenue history supports it.
Yes, but for the initial application we use a soft pull. A hard pull happens only if you accept a term sheet.
As often as you want, up to your available limit. Repayments free up the line for future draws.
