href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/us\/sba-loans\/\">SBA loans<\/a> available for different types of small businesses and different purposes. The type of loan you apply for will depend on what you need it for and your business\u2019s qualifications, such as time in business, credit scores and business financials. Also, SBA loans are guaranteed through the SBA but are administered by SBA-approved lenders who manage applications, approvals and payouts.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SBA loans can take longer to process than other loans because the application process is extremely thorough and they\u2019re very popular loan types. Most small businesses are willing to wait because of how much money they can get from the loan as well as the attractive repayment terms and low interest rates.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below are some of the most common SBA loan types and what they can be used for, as well as their typical approval wait times.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><strong>7(a) loans<\/strong><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the most popular SBA loan type, <a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/us\/sba-loans\/sba-7a-loans\/\">SBA 7(a) loans<\/a> can be used for a variety of purposes, including working capital, purchasing business equipment or even refinancing other debt. You can borrow up to $5 million with an SBA 7(a) loan, although most small businesses qualify for less money.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After applying for an SBA 7(a) loan, you can expect to wait 60-90 days for approval. This wait time depends on how thorough your application was, whether the lender has any follow-up questions or how many other loan applications the lender has to go through.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><strong>504\/CDC loans<\/strong><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/us\/sba-loans\/sba-504-loans\/\">SBA 504\/CDC loans<\/a> are different from other SBA loans in a few ways. First, they can only be used for specific purposes such as to buy commercial real estate, pay for improvements on commercial property or to make major equipment purchases. Secondly, they\u2019re funded through certified development companies (CDCs), so the borrower has to get approval from both the CDC and the SBA.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can take 30-45 days for the SBA to approve a 504\/CDC loan, although it can take longer for the CDC to approve the loan. In fact, some borrowers have had to wait up to six months to get their 504\/CDC loans approved. For the most part, these loans are usually worth the wait: Borrowers can get up to $5.5 million for projects with an SBA 504\/CDC loan, but they will have to prove that their project will create jobs or otherwise contribute to the local community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><strong>Microloans<\/strong><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/us\/sba-loans\/sba-microloans\/\">SBA microloan<\/a>s are meant for smaller projects of $50,000 or less. They\u2019re usually processed much faster than other SBA loans, and they tend to have fewer or less strict requirements. These loans are very popular among small businesses that are owned by minorities, women, <a href=\"https:\/\/swoopfunding.com\/us\/business-loans\/business-loans-for-veterans\/\">veterans<\/a> and low-income business owners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can take up to three months for an SBA microloan to be approved, although most borrowers will see approvals within a month.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><strong>Disaster loans<\/strong><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SBA Disaster loans are issued by the SBA during emergencies and are meant for businesses who have experienced physical or economic damage due to a declared disaster. These are not loans you can apply for everyday, and they must be used for specific disaster-related purposes, such as repairing property or equipment or paying employees if your business had to be shut down.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because they\u2019re meant to be used during periods of disaster, these SBA are usually approved much more quickly than other SBA loans. SBA-approved lenders try their best to get loans approved within three weeks, as long as the application is complete and they don\u2019t require any further documentation from the borrower.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a9101f0 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a9101f0\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c6c4213 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c6c4213\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How to get approved for an SBA loan\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fcc2033 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fcc2033\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best way to get approved for an SBA loan is to make sure you are fully qualified for the loan. However, there are a few other ways you can help your chances.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, make sure you submit all of the required documentation and that it\u2019s correct. If the lender has to ask you for more information, this can slow down the process. Be ready to provide up-to-date financials, such as tax returns and bank statements, from the past three years.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Second, it\u2019s a good idea to apply with an SBA Preferred Lender. These financial institutions tend to do a high volume of SBA loans and they can help you through the process. Also, they already have permission from the SBA to approve loans, whereas other lenders will have to send the loan application to the SBA for approval, which can take even more time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have a previous relationship with the lender, this can help you even more. A financial institution that you know \u2013 and who knows you \u2013 will be able to guide you through the process and answer any questions you have, which can speed things up significantly. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f577e1c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f577e1c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bf2e22f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"bf2e22f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How will I know if my SBA loan is approved?\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b1f426 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7b1f426\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lender will be in touch with you to let you know if your SBA loan has been approved.
