Growing Company Gets a California Small Business Loan

Bank loans in California are tough to come by these days. We take a look at one California bank loan, provided by a Virginia bank, that was approved by the SBA.

This company, based in San Jose, California, offers a good example of how small businesses get financed. Taking advantage of the SBA's guaranteed loan program, they were able to get a loan from Capital One. We've got the inside scoop on this California small business loan.

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 only one employee. The SBA loan documents indicated that the loan would help retain 1 existing job.

Next Steps for Getting an SBA Loan

SBA loans typically are available at competitive interest rates and have no balloon payments or annual reviews.

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 Capital One 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!
