Win-Win! SBA Loans Benefit Lenders Too
In this article, we are focusing on how the SBA 504 program adds value to lending institutions by positively impacting risk and return.
Top 3 Value-Adds for SBA 504 Lenders
Value-Add #3: The CDC’s relationship helps diversify the loan portfolio.
By leveraging your relationship with a certified development company like Community Business Finance, your team can lean on the CDC’s SBA 504 experience and guidance to finance a greater variety of industries, large real estate transactions, and a wide range of property types.
Value-Add #2: The unique 504 Loan features reduce credit risk.
The lender’s standard 50% loan-to-value 1st lien collateral position minimizes collateral exposure for the lender. Furthermore, SBA fixed rates ensure more predictable long-term debt service coverage up to the 25-year life of the loan.
Value-Add #1: Aggressive loan terms and below-market interest rates help win and retain customers.
90% financing is appealing to borrowers looking to conserve working capital or trying to maximize borrowing power to acquire their dream building. A low-interest rate locked in for the life of the loan positions the bank to offer the best terms without sacrificing the bank’s yield.
