PSA for anyone looking to get an SBA deal: Get life insurance now!

In the final steps of my first real business acquisition. It's been a huge learning experience and overall positive. One thing that took way longer than I thought it would is getting life insurance. I needed a term life policy to cover the equity gap in my deal and didnt have any life insurance. It took several weeks to go through the whole process and has probably pushed back closing by a few days. Not a big deal, but also could have been worse if I didnt stay on top of things. It also added unneeded stress to the process. Lesson learned.
