Great, But How Can I Get an SBA Loan for My Business?

SBA loans make it possible for banks to offer loans more easily and provide them with more flexible terms than conventional loan options.

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 Citizens First Bank 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!
