🏗️ This week's Flourish Friday is for every construction business owner who has ever had a project ready to move and capital that wasn't.
A construction company in Louisiana needed a line of credit to keep a project on schedule. Within 6 days, they had $850,000 in place.
Six days for nearly a million dollars.
Construction cash flow is unforgiving. Materials have to be purchased before the work gets done. Subcontractors have to be paid before the owner pays the invoice. The gap between money going out and money coming in can stretch for weeks, and a project that stalls because of a cash flow gap costs far more than the capital would have.
The right line of credit, structured correctly and accessed quickly, keeps the project moving and the relationship with the general contractor intact. That's worth more than the interest cost of the capital.
