Small Business Administration (SBA) loans are designed to help small businesses, who don’t have access to capital through conventional lending channels, obtain the financing they need to grow their businesses. CommunityBank of Texas offers SBA’s primary loan programs, SBA 7a and SBA 504 loans.
- 7a loans can be used for nearly any business-related financing need and offer fully amortizing terms of up to 25 years
- 504 loans are primarily for acquiring fixed assets such as real estate, machinery & equipment and offer fully amortizing terms of up to 25 years.
SBA loans are available for both start-ups and existing small businesses if they have been formed “for profit” and meet SBA’s size and eligibility criteria. Loans can be used for a variety of business needs including purchasing, renovating or constructing a building, leasehold improvements, purchasing equipment, inventory, furniture & fixtures, refinancing debt, business acquisitions and working capital.
Generally, SBA loans offer longer repayment terms, require less money down and offer monthly payments that are lower than conventional financing terms.
