Hi All - I am new to this platform / search and interested on if getting pre-approved for a SBA loans early on is A) possible and B) valuable?

My thought is this is good step to get out of the way early and will help to understand my buying power....

Shan, I would definitely recommend talking to someone to be sure you understand the lending process. Although I agree with Robert that a pre-approval does not mean much up front, unfortunately some brokers do require something indicating someone has reviewed your financials and you have the money to put down and reasonable credit. I would be more than happy to talk with you at any time about what is involved in the process. We are a commercial loan brokerage shop with roughly 500 funding partners with many SBA partners. You can reach me directly at --@----.com
