SBA 504 Loan Refinance Program

The Small Business Administration 504 Loan Refinance Program is designed to help business owners refinance existing debt with significant savings. This is made possible by applying low, long-term, fixed-rate solutions to loans. In addition to the low rate, with the SBA 504 refinance, business owners can channel funds to their business to help it grow.

Now you can:
  • Consolidate Debt: Consolidate debt into long-term fixed-rate obligations for up to 25 years. Eligible debt must have been incurred more than six month prior to purchase owner-occupied commercial real estate, land, new construction, renovation and equipment.
  • Cash Out: Obtain cash for up to 20% of the appraised value of your business assets to use toward future operating expenses.
How it works:
  • Loan-to-Values of up to 90% (no cash out) and 85% (cash out).
  • Loan amounts $50,000 - $5.5 million.
  • Available terms include 10, 20 and 25 years.
Eligibility Criteria: 
  • At least 85% of the original loan (that is being refinanced with the 504 Loan Refinance Program) must have been used to acquire, construct, or improve fixed assets.
  • The property must be owner-occupied, i.e., the business must occupy at least 51% of the total square footage.
  • Debt must have been incurred at least six months prior to the date the refinance application is received by the SBA. 
  • An independent appraisal of the fair market value of the project assets and any additional assets offered as additional collateral must be provided. Appraisals are not required at the time of application, but are required prior to closing and must be dated no earlier than one year prior to the date the application was approved by the SBA.
  • Loan subject to SBA approval.
