Getting an SBA Loan For Your Business

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.

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.

You need to demonstrate business strength and potential, but the sooner you start, the faster you'll get the money if you qualify!
