7(a) loans are the most basic and most used type loan of SBA's business loan programs. Its name comes from section 7(a) of the Small Business Act, which authorizes the Agency to provide business loans to American small businesses.
Unsecured SBA loans are offered to those who do not qualify for loans through the normal lending channels. The terms offered by SBA are more flexible. Valid loans are those where the proceeds of the loan are used for sound business purposes. The maturity is 10 to 25 years depending upon working capital and fixed assets.
As the SBA does not lend directly to the business owner. It is important that the lender you are working with is knowledgeable about unsecured SBA loans, as it will initially process your application, not the SBA. The SBA will review the application once the lender approves it. The lender will look for the following in your unsecured SBA loan application:
- Good credit score
- Relevant business experience
- Owner's own investment.
- Good business concept or plan
- Capacity to Manage and Pay
