How It Works
How This Financing Is Structured
SBA 7(a) loans are partially guaranteed by the federal government, allowing lenders to extend credit to businesses that wouldn't qualify conventionally. SBA 504 loans split financing between a bank (50%) and a Certified Development Company (40%) with a 10% equity injection. Terms extend to 25 years for real estate.
