How SBA 7(a) Loans Work for Business Acquisitions

SBA 7(a) loans are the most common financing method for small business acquisitions in the US. The SBA guarantees up to 85% of loans under $150,000 and 75% of loans above that amount, making lenders more willing to finance business purchases.

Key SBA 7(a) Terms

  • Down payment: Typically 10-20% of the purchase price
  • Interest rate: Prime rate + 2.75% for loans over $250K (variable)
  • Loan term: Up to 10 years for business acquisitions, 25 years if real estate included
  • DSCR requirement: Minimum 1.25x Debt Service Coverage Ratio
  • Guarantee fee: 2-3.75% of the guaranteed portion

SBA Loan Qualification Requirements

To qualify, you typically need a credit score above 680, relevant industry experience, a solid business plan, and the business must demonstrate sufficient cash flow to cover debt service (DSCR of 1.25x or higher).
