An SBA 504 project pairs a first-lien lender with a Certified Development Company that funds a second lien, for owner-occupied real estate and equipment.
SBA 504 figures count the first-lien lender on each SBA approval. A project marked not funded is often recent and awaiting funding.
Each lender is counted only where the public file places the loan. Lenders that merged or stopped filing are left out.
SBA does not require you to use an agent or broker for a loan application. SBA has not reviewed or endorsed this site.
Source and date appear beside each figure. Banks report balances, not loans made. Loans made come only from HMDA and SBA files. We do not audit filings and can make errors joining them. Report a problem
Figures come from public records and show the source and date beside them. Public records can be late, incomplete or wrong. A past loan does not mean a lender will make the same kind of loan today. Confirm anything important with the lender.
