The SBA Lending Team Colorado Businesses Rely On

We’ve built a team of the best local Small Business Administration (SBA)
lenders in Colorado, so you don’t have to look anywhere else. We value transparency
and efficiency, which means no wasted time and no false promises. If your deal fits, we
move fast. If it doesn’t, you’ll know right away. Every second counts for small
businesses, and we respect your time.

Loan Programs

7(a) Loan

The 7(a) loan is the SBA’s most utilized and flexible financing option. Designed for growth-minded small business owners, it can be used for OOCRE, purchase a business, buyout a partner, equipment, buildout of a new location, and one time close for construction lending.

504 Loan

The 504 loan is designed for established small businesses focused on long-term growth, looking to stay in a location for a long period of time, and predictable financing. It’s an ideal solution for borrowers looking to purchase owner-occupied commercial real estate or long-term equipment.
