What to Expect
Phase One
The first phase involves discussing your business and the project to be financed with one of our Loan Officers. They will also analyze limited financial information about the business, its borrower(s) and the project.
Phase Two
Phase two involves submitting a complete application for financing. The basic application materials are no different than what a bank typically requires. *The first two phases are generally completed within 10 business days.
Phase Three
Phase three is the interim funding process, which generally occurs after SBA approves the project and issues a commitment for the 504 loan. The project funds are then provided by the participating lender.
Phase Four
Phase four completes the transaction with funds provided by Growth Corp (through the sale of bonds after the project is complete) to pay down the participating lender for up to 40% of the total project costs.
