SBA 504 Loan Program for Refinancing is here!

SBA 504 Loan Program for Refinancing is here!

 

Stemming from the Small Business Jobs Act passed by Congress in September 2010, the SBA refinancing program temporarily authorizes the use of the 504 Loan Program for the refinancing of debt where there is no expansion of the small business concern.  The rules have been published, and the loans are now available.

 

By helping small businesses refinance current mortgages or equipment loans, and lock in lower, long-term interest rates, this temporary Jobs Act program will help to provide the assistance needed by small businesses to avoid liquidation or foreclosure and improve their prospects for survival.  It will also help to stabilize the commercial real estate market, as well as encourage lenders to increase lending by improving the health of their portfolios.

 

Economic Development Foundation announces three opportunities to learn about the new SBA 504 refinancing guidelines for small businesses looking for some additional debt adjustments.

 

The meeting agenda will be as follows:

  • SBA 504 Overview
  • Refinance Overview
  • Refinance Eligibility Guidelines
  • Refinance Structure
  • Qualifying checklist
  • Refinance Examples

 

Below are the scheduled locations and times:

  • Wednesday, March 9 - Kalamazoo Chamber of Commerce; 9:30am - 10:30am
  • Monday, March 14- Grand Rapids, GVSU (Bicycle Factory, Room 340); 9:30am - 10:30am
  • Wednesday, March 16 - Traverse City Chamber of Commerce; 11:30am - 12:30pm
