- Budget for fees and closing costs.

SBA vs conventional
SBA-backed loans can offer useful terms for qualified borrowers, while conventional loans may move faster for strong applicants. Requirements vary by lender and program.
- Prepare financial statements.
- Know collateral and guarantee requirements.
- Borrow for a clear use of funds.
