A small business loan backed by the U.S. Small Business Administration is the most affordable financing option for small businesses. These loans offer flexible terms and low-interest rates to help entrepreneurs, veterans, women, and minorities get convenient funding that helps grow their business. The Small Business Administration doesn’t lend money directly to small business owners, but instead, sets guidelines and provides guarantees to partnering lenders.
The Small Business Administration guarantees up to 90% on some SBA 7(a) loans. This reduces the risk for lenders, which translates to lower payments and more flexible terms for borrowers. When you get a SBA 7(a) loan through Opportunity Business Loans, you will receive the funding you need through a loan that offers low annual percentage rates (APR), low-interest rates, and low down payments.
