More Information on This SBA Loan

The borrower borrowed this money for a new business. This loan was used to buy a Plato's Closet franchise. At the time of the loan, the company had 10 employees. This SBA loan request did not indicate that the SBA funding recipient promised to use the funding to increase staffing levels or retain any existing employees.

Next Steps for Getting an SBA Loan

The Small Business Administration (SBA) provides government-guaranteed loans designed to help small businesses that may not otherwise qualify for credit get the funds they need.

There are SBA loan fees that may apply. SBA lenders must pay the SBA a guaranty fee of 1% to 3.5% of guaranteed amount. The SBA will also make the lender pay annual fees amounting to 0.25% of the loan's outstanding balance. The lender is allowed by law to pass these fees to the borrower.

Still, as most small businesses know, these fees are minimal compared to the potential of what capital can do for a business. So, what are you waiting for? Get in touch with an SBA lending bank today!
