The Small Business Loan Program at CFA is an excellent source of financing for most businesses.  Most borrowers often think that the SBA is a direct lender, which is not the case.  The SBA simply offers a government agency program to lenders guaranteeing 75% - 85% of the funds in the event of borrower default for a nominal one-time fee, built into the cost of the loan.  This is where working with a company like CFA really pays dividends, because CFA will contract lenders across the country to secure the best financing options within the framework of an SBA loan.  

 

Commercial Finance America, LLC has been designated as a preferred financial services company by Perferred SBA lenders to have loans processed more quickly and efficiently. This designation means that the SBA has delegated the approval process to our lenders, which means fast and efficient processing of your SBA loan.
