I wanted to hear your experience with the SBA lender match website. I'm contemplating if it's worth my time or if I should use another service to get an SBA loan for my acquisition.

Personally, I prefer building relationships with lenders. I believe it is important to have a partner post acquisition, not just a loan/ lender. Interesting questions can be:
- What does the lender have to offer besides the SBA loan (Specific Industry Know-How and/or exposure, Line of Credit, foreign currency accounts, etc.)
- How does the lender operate in case things do not go "as planned"? Does the lender have resources that can/ will support you to prevent default in a difficult situation?
- etc.

Folks like ^redacted‌, ^redacted‌, ^redacted‌, ^redacted‌, ^redacted‌ and others have been great resources for me and I highly recommend to reach out to them.

hey, happy to help you. This tool has had very good reviews and many businesses have used it already for working capital, growth, capital and acquisition finance. One quick application and you can access initial proposals from the integrated network of over 800 lenders. https://foundy.swoopfunding.com/stage
You can raise $20k to $6 million. Average time for money in bank is 2 weeks but it depends on various factors. Happy to discuss further. This is a tool we introduced recently as our 12,000 registered buyers were interested in it.
