SBA 504 Loans

The SBA 504 Loan Program provides long-term, fixed-rate financing of up to $5 million for major fixed assets that promote business growth and job creation.

​

THE PROCESS 

  1. Contact your preferred bank for a loan. If the lender recognizes that an SBA 504 loan is a good fit, they will contact SCKEDD to determine if the project is eligible.

  2. Once the loan is approved by the bank, the bank sends the loan to SCKEDD so we can begin the underwriting process.

  3. When the loan package is complete and approved by our Loan Review Committee, we submit it to SBA.

  4. If SBA approves the loan, our team assists you, the borrower, for the life of the loan.

SBA 504 loan advantages

​

Low down payments

SBA 504 loans provide an opportunity for a smaller down payment. This allows your business to conserve working capital for growth. You can expect to put down 10% to 20% of the project on average. The balance is often financed in part by a bank, up to 50% of the total loan, and in part by SCKEDD, up to 30 to 40% of the total loan.

​

Interest Rates Below Conventional Loan Rates

The SBA 504 loan has low interest rates that vary based on market forces. The actual interest rate that the borrower will pay is calculated based on the debenture rate for the month the loan is funded. SBA 504 loans are funded by monthly bond (debenture) sales to investors on Wall Street.

​

Fixed Interest Rates

Fixed interest rates help with budgeting. The SBA 504 loan program offers a fixed rate for 10 to 25 years on real estate and long-term equipment, based on the useful life of the equipment. 

​
