Business acquisition financing up to $5 million through the SBA program.

The SBA issued a Procedural Notice yesterday that had some changes that will benefit the business acquisition space: 1. SOP no longer requires that a lease term must be as long as the loan term as long as we are not financing a substantial amount of leasehold improvements, or collateral consists of a substantial portion of leasehold improvements, fixtures, machinery or equipment that is attached to the leased space. If we are, then we MUST obtain a written copy of the lease agreement and if we are unable to obtain an assignment lease or landlord’s waiver then the lease term MUST be at least as long as the SBA loan term and any renewal options MUST be exercisable only by the borrower. 2 The blend is back! For complete changes of ownership with CRE, we can now blend the maturity if the value of the CRE is not >= 51% of the purchase price.
