More Information on This SBA Loan

The borrower borrowed this money for an existing business. The SBA's records indicate that the loan was not for investment in a franchise. At the time of the loan, the company had 10 employees. The loan application did not indicate that the business planned to use the money to increase staffing levels or retain any existing employees.

Getting an SBA Loan For Your Business

Many small businesses receive loans backed by the U.S. Small Business Administration.

SBA loan guarantees are not loans per se. The SBA simply guarantees the loan, but banks and other lending institutions grant you the loan and give you the money. So, just as this company walked into American State Bank and applied for an SBA loan, you have to do the same thing. You need to demonstrate business strength and potential, but the sooner you start, the faster you'll get the money if you qualify!
