Our partner who has provided PG for the SBA loan needs to step back due to personal situation. She wont be able to manage day today operations.
She is offering to sell her stake to remaining partners, she wants to remove her PG since she will be gone for extended period of time. SBA lender refused to allow ownership change and asking us to refinance.

What options do we have ?

Pay off the loan or refinance

add a credit worthy borrower to the note willing to take on the personal guarantee

if it's at least 5 years old and there enough assets in the business, they may choose to remove it

Create a debt service reserve account in escrow that the lender can pull funds out of, fund a minimum 9 months of payments that are due to cover the loan payments.

Get the decline from the existing bank in writing. That opens up the door for an SBA refi loan. Use it to pay off the existing loan, and bingo no PG from seller.
