4 Common SBA Loan Challenges & How to Avoid Them

2 min read. by Joe Camberato The root of all SBA challenges, from the horrible approval rate to the long gaps in funding, to the inexplicable reliance on applicants to figure out the incredibly complex SBA process for themselves, stems from the incompetence and dispassionate practices of most SBA lenders. The horrible truth is, no small business owner would be rejected from getting the SBA financing they need to grow if they had the connections and tools necessary to make it happen. Banks and other SBA lenders have these tools and connections at their disposal but refuse to provide them to small business owners the same way they would to bigger, million-dollar businesses (despite the name “SMALL BUSINESS” being in the freaking title of the loan). The good news is, with the introduction of the Hybridge SBA Loan™, NBC has the same tools and connections, which they use to make SBA funding easily accessible for all main street businesses—and happen faster and simpler than anyone else. Read on to find out how NBC helps you avoid the 4 most common challenges business owners face when applying for an SBA loan!

4 Most Common SBA Loan Challenges

 

1. Complex Process. Endless Paperwork.

The vast amount of paperwork and red tape banks and other SBA lenders dump on their clients to figure out for themselves isn’t only irresponsible and dangerously time consuming, it’s straight-up unethical. No one who isn’t in the SBA industry should be left alone to figure out how to correctly progress through the process—messing something up could prove fatal to business owners who have never gone through it before. Without years of SBA experience under your belt, properly navigating through the infamously long and complicated SBA process can prove to be not only a huge time-wasting burden, but an impossibility. NBC’s Solution: It’s actually really simple—NBC gives you all the help you need!

With the team at NBC at your back, you’ll be assured the smoothest, fastest ride to your SBA funds possible, with absolutely no hiccups.

2. Denial Due to Bad Credit.

First of all—by “bad credit,” banks mean anything less than absolutely perfect. But no business is perfect, and credit isn’t everything. Banks and other lenders follow these ridiculous and arbitrary standards set by people who don’t understand—and have little to no connection to—the needs of main street businesses. NBC’s Solution: As a small business itself, NBC knows personally the crazy amount of hassle most business owners have to deal with when it comes to business funding. NBC has made getting an SBA loan with lower-than-godly credit scores finally possible for all small business owners. All you need is a business credit score of 685 or above. That’s really it.

3. Tax Liens & Missed Payments.

Even if you have exceptional credit and you’re making rock star-level sales, something as small as a tax lien or past missed payment can trip up even the biggest business titans seeking SBA funding. NBC’s Solution: Use the Hybridge SBA Loan’s bridge capital—accessible in as little as 24 hours after applying—to pay off your tax lien, pay off your vendors, or do whatever you need to do to get your company financeable for an SBA loan! Then once you get funds from your SBA (in as little as 45 days through NBC’s revolutionary expedited process), you can immediately pay off any capital left over from your small business loan. Or you can continue using these extra funds to grow and develop your business! The decision is yours. It’s a win-win!

4. Long Wait Times for Funding.

Although the terms of an SBA loan may be the best course of action for many small business owners, those who seek funding to accomplish challenges and seize opportunities immediately often wind up disappointed. Why? Because banks and other lenders are comically slow when it comes to processing SBA loans. Traditional lenders typically take 6 months or more to get their clients access to SBA loans, making taking immediate advantage of an opportunity for growth impossible. NBC’s Solution: Fortunately, NBC’s Hybridge SBA Loan comes with 2 fixes to the challenge of dealing with a large gap in funding. First, business owners who apply will receive immediate access to bridge capital in as little as 24 hours. They can use these funds to take care of whatever short-term goals they wish to accomplish. Secondly, NBC’s expedited Hybridge SBA process can get business owners SBA funds in as little as 45 days—that’s less than a third of the time typically needed by banks and other lenders to process SBA loans.
