Serving Business Owners & Commercial Borrowers
Our financing advisors work with businesses throughout Downtown Riverside, Arlington, La Sierra, Casa Blanca, Orangecrest, Eastside, and surrounding Inland Empire communities.
How Do We Help Businesses Find the Right SBA Financing?
Every business has different financing requirements. Our advisors review several factors before recommending an SBA loan program that fits the business and its intended use.
- Business Purpose: How the funds will be used.
- Property Use: Whether the property meets SBA occupancy requirements.
- Business Profile: Financial strength, cash flow, and operating history.
- Loan Structure: Loan amount, terms, and financing options.
If SBA financing isn’t the right fit, our financing advisors can also help you explore commercial real estate loans, bridge financing, construction loans, and other commercial lending solutions.
Which SBA Loan May Fit Your Business?
SBA financing includes different loan programs designed for different business needs. Choosing the right structure depends on how you plan to use the funds and your long-term objectives.
SBA 504 Loans: Often used for major fixed assets such as owner-occupied commercial real estate and eligible equipment, making them an option for businesses looking to acquire or improve long-term assets.
SBA 7(a) Loans: Offer broader flexibility and may be used for eligible real estate, business acquisitions, working capital, equipment, and other qualifying business purposes.
We compare the available options and help you identify the SBA financing structure that best aligns with your business goals.
