Crownwick Advances is a small-business funding company based in Lancaster, PA. It explains six kinds of business funding, matches each request with funding partners that offer the right product, and leaves the credit decision, pricing and terms to those partners.
What Crownwick Advances does
Crownwick Advances does not lend money itself. We help owners in Lancaster, PA and across Lancaster County, PA work out which kind of funding fits the job in front of them, and then we match the request with funding partners who offer that kind. The partner reviews the file, decides whether to approve it, and sets the amount, cost and terms. Whether to sign stays your call.
One of the six options, the merchant cash advance, is not a loan at all; it is a purchase of future receipts, and we say so every time it comes up.
The six options we explain
Working capital, term loans, lines of credit, inventory financing, equipment financing and merchant cash advances. Each page explains how the option is paid back, what partners usually review, and when another option might suit you better.
How we try to be useful
- Start from the purpose of the money, not from a product we would like to sell
- Show total cost and payment rhythm in dollars where a partner's offer allows it
- Say plainly when an option is expensive, such as a merchant cash advance used for a recurring cost
- Never quote rates, approval odds or timelines that a partner has not given in writing
