Winston Rowe & Associates Real Estate Investing Financing

The Small Business Administration does not actually loan money. Instead, it serves as a type of partial-repayment cosigner, which is why collateral is typically needed to acquire a SBA loan.

SBA loans are used for different purposes. While most people associate a business loan with start-up capital,

SBA loans serve more purposes. For instance, funds can be used to refinance expensive debt, purchase equipment and/or inventory, expansion, or even to buy real estate.

Here are some more things you need to know about SBA loans:

There are 6 types of SBA loans:

1. SBA 7(a) Loans

SBA 7(a) loans are the most common type of SBA loan. These loans of up to $5,000,000 can be used for working capital, to refinance debt, or to buy a business, real estate, or equipment.

The SBA 7(a) program includes the SBA Express Loans and SBA Advantage Loans.
