In this episode, I’m joined by Ryan Smith, a former banker and commercial loan officer who founded ThinkSBA to help entrepreneurs receive the capital they need to acquire or grow their business. Nearly all middle market and Main Street business acquisitions are funded using SBA 7(a) financing. Ryan helps clients find the best rates and terms for acquiring a business or franchise, buying out a partner, purchasing equipment or qualifying for commercial mortgage. He prepares buyers for the borrowing process and facilitates the best loan to close an acquisition.
