Own the Business? Own the Building

SBA financing for small AND large building purchases.

By Barbara Morrison, TMC

Did you know that SBA financing isn’t just for small buildings? There is no limit to the size of the building purchase with SBA 504 financing. Under a new, energy-related program recently announced by SBA, the 504 program is able to finance significantly larger projects, such as the $22.2 million purchase below. Any building purchase resulting in at least at 10% reduction in energy usage may qualify for increased SBA 504 loan funds. Businesses which will generate renewable energy in the new building may also qualify. Companies with substantial space needs can now reap the benefits of SBA 504 financing.
