What you'll get

The SBA doesn't lend money itself; it guarantees loans that banks and other lenders make. This page explains who qualifies, what the money can pay for, and that you apply through a lender.

Do this week

Book a call with one lender, a bank or a community lender like Mountain BizWorks, and ask what they'd need to see from your business to approve a loan.
