The Small Business Association offers a variety of loans for business with varying terms and APR. Funds can be used for anything from the purchase of equipment, to construction and inventory. The SBA provides specific requirements to be considered a “small business” and eligibility is determined based on the ability to provide proof of those requirements. The immense benefit of this financing is that the SBA will guarantee a percentage of these loans to the lender. This provides a significant measure of security for guaranteed repayment. As a result, financial institutions have more incentive to lend money to these qualified small businesses.
SBA LOANS: EQUIPMENT
An SBA 504 Loan is a perfect option for small to mid-size business owners seeking funding for equipment and machinery. Equipment loans are commonly funded up to 80% - 100% of the equipment purchase price.
Qualifying purchases will have a long-term value and will be used solely for business purposes. Therefore, in order to be approved for an SBA 504 Equipment Loan, the business owner must provide proof of experience in their field of operation and show a need for the equipment being purchased. When a business is denied traditional funding, an SBA 504 loan provides funding with low APR and easy terms.

An SBA 7(a) Inventory Loan is commonly used for the purchase of inventory and/or stock in order to meet their business needs. In this type of financing, the business' future income is used as collateral and the loan is paid as inventory is sold.
