If you have questions about SBA financing, feel free to shoot me a message or leave them in a comment below, and I’ll be happy to answer them. I am also happy to share my personal contact info for anyone in the process of acquiring a business who might have questions along the way. There’s been a lot of beneficial changes (for buyers) to SBA policy over the past six months and I’d love to share them with you. You can also email me if you’d like at:

(1) When sizing the SBA loan, do you require 2022 income to have the same debt service coverage ratio as 2023 income, or do you factor in lower coverage for each prior year? (2) For seller notes on 2-year standby, what is the fastest debt repayment allowed (the most seller-friendly terms allowed) after Year 2, or does the debt then need to amortize over the remaining 8 years and not sooner?
