I recently secured a signed LOI and want to shop for the SBA loans. In addition, I would like to find a law firm that recently represented self-funded searchers. Ideally, they are in California. But I am open for other locations if they are great. Thanks !

Angela, Bruce Marks with First Bank of the Lake is a great SBA Loan resource. He previously was featured on two livestreams through Searchfunder.

Hi Angela, I am a Business Banking Relationship Manager with BBVA and can offer conventional and SBA financing options. Will be happy to connect!

Hi Angela. I'm in Newport Beach, and we have some of the best SBA terms in the industry. Call me at[redacted].

Hi Angela,

I love working with self-funded searchers and have helped searchers in California, although I'm based in St. Louis, MO. Feel free to email me if you want to set up a time to talk - [redacted]

^[redacted]‌ do you work with East Coast searchers?

Yes, happy to work with East Coast searchers.

Sorry, we stop at Illinois

Angela -- congrats! Happy to get on the phone with you to discuss. Since you are at the LOI stage, happy to do it quickly to meet any deadlines you have. Please email me at [redacted] to discuss.

I emailed Byline Bank and they were very responsive and informative

Live Oak Bank is the nation’s #1 SBA lender and we work in all states. We specialize in BOTH self funded and traditional search. I’m 100% dedicated to searchfund lending and we’ve closed about 100 search deals in the past 3 years. [redacted]

I can do the work finding you multiple options if you would like.

We have both SBA and non-SBA loan programs throughout the US. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me at [redacted]
