Frequently Asked Questions

What is the SBA?

The Small Business Administration (SBA) was established in 1953 to support entrepreneurs and small businesses. SBA loans are offered by private lenders like Midland, with the SBA providing a government-backed guarantee on part of the loan.

How does SBA lending work?

SBA loans offer favorable terms and lower barriers compared to conventional loans. They are customized to meet the unique needs of business owners and can be used for various business purposes.

What is the difference between an SBA loan and a business loan from Midland?

SBA loans typically offer longer terms and lower interest rates but require more documentation. Midland offers both SBA and business loans, providing flexible terms and fast approval.

Is an SBA loan from Midland States Bank the same as from another bank?

SBA loans, like the 7a and 504, can be obtained through various lenders. Rates and terms are set within SBA guidelines, and the servicing is done by the bank. Midland States Bank offers strong customer service and support with these loans.

Why choose a Preferred Lender over a non-preferred lender?

Preferred Lenders have delegated authority from the SBA to approve loans, leading to faster processing times. Non-preferred lenders must submit applications to the SBA for approval, which can take longer.

Is Midland States Bank a Preferred Lender?

Yes, Midland States Bank is a Preferred Lender with the SBA, allowing us to process, close, and service most SBA-guaranteed loans without prior review.
