Next Steps for Getting an SBA Loan

For small businesses in need of money, an SBA guaranteed loan is often the best way to obtain financing.

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 Bank Of America 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!
