Today, you can borrow up to $100,000 through the low-doc SBA program.

More Information on This SBA Loan

The borrower, M.K. Travel & Tour, Inc., borrowed this money for an existing business. According to the loan information, this was not a franchise loan. At the time of the loan, the company had 45 employees. The SBA loan documents did not indicate that the SBA funding recipient promised to use the money to hire new employees or retain any existing employees.

Getting an SBA Loan For Your Business

SBA loans can help growing businesses purchase or renovate real estate, acquire fixed assets such as heavy machinery or specialized equipment, borrow working capital for ongoing financing needs, or fund the acquisition of new businesses.

SBA loan guarantees are not loans per se. The SBA simply guarantees the loan, but banks and other lending institutions grant you the loan and give you the money. So, just as M.K. Travel & Tour, Inc. walked into Ocean Bank and applied for an SBA loan, you have to do the same thing. The sooner you start, the faster you'll get the money!
