SBA 504 Refinance Program
(without expansion)

Unlike the traditional 504 program (which can include refinance when there is significant expansion), this product can be used to provide "cash out" for eligible business expenses.

  • Cash out cannot exceed 20% of the asset value
  • Occupancy must be 51% at the time of application

We are still awaiting the SBA's interpretation of the 504 refi program enhancements that were written into the Economic Aid Act passed by Congress.

Please be sure to stay connected with us via our mailing list or through social media for updates. As always, please reach out to your GSDC partner with any questions.
