SBA 7a Loan Program
In certain situations, this SBA 7a loan product is still a very viable and practical product. Major new changes to the program are now in effect due to the Small Business Jobs Act (Bill 5297). For example, the new maximum loan amount is now $5 million, increased from $2 million. This is a permanent change that has been well received and already utilized.
With some of the most flexible underwriting guidelines, debt coverage ratios of 1:1 are still allowed. Most commercial mortgages, in contrast, require minimum debt coverage ratios of a 1.35. So, with a 7a program, your practice can have lower cash flow and still get approved and closed.

- Practice & Real Estate Acquisition
