  • The Bible for Small Business Owners Seeking Financing
Format: Paperback
This book is more than just about SBA loans - it also explains how the borrower should prepare for the rigors of applying for a business loan, whether via SBA or not. A complete list of documents that will most likely be required from the lender including tax returns, financial statements, etc. The author explains the importance of each document and what and why the underwriters want to see these docs and what they are looking for. A real eye-opener. I think all entrepreneurs should have and study this book before looking for capital. ... show more

  • Very Informative

This book offers a prospective borrower with a comprehensive overview of what lenders and the SBA look at in the procurement of Bank funding with or without SBA assistance. The author stays on point and presents the material in an easy to comprehend format.

  • Very detailed and useful
Format: Kindle
I found a lot of detail in this book more easily than I was able to find on the SBA website, and came away much more knowledgeable about how to position my S chapter corporation for a SBA loan. Discussed a lot of things I had no idea about, from a lender's perspective. Worth every penny.
