SBA loans

Small Business Administration supported loans.  SBA does not actually make direct loans; instead, it provides loan guarantees to entrepreneurs, promising the bank/lender to pay back a certain percentage of your loan if you are unable to. Banks participate in the SBA program as regular, certified or preferred lenders. Click here to find the best lender for your needs.
