CPA SBA 7(a) Loans
Your expertise is vital for your clients’ financial decisions, and you deserve a reliable partner for your own practice. The SBA 7(a) loan program, backed by the government, is designed to help you maintain financial stability and drive growth. Whether you’re looking to hire new staff, purchase equipment, or renovate your practice, the SBA 7(a) loan is a top financing choice for CPAs and Tax Professionals due to its flexibility and accessibility.
Longer Repayment Terms
Repayment terms for SBA 7(a) loans are flexible, ranging up to 10 years for general business needs and up to 25 years for real estate. You can prepay loans under 15 years without penalties. For longer loans, a prepayment penalty applies for paying off more than 25% in the first three years: 5% in the first year, 3% in the second, and 1% in the third. After this period, you’re free to repay without penalties, offering greater control.
Competitive Interest Rates
Save on financing with the competitive interest rates of SBA 7(a) loans. Thanks to a government-backed guarantee, we can deliver more affordable rates than typical business lenders.
Lower Down Payments
The government guaranty also enables small business owners to secure financing with lower down payments compared to traditional business loans, typically up to 20% of the total project cost but in some cases as low as 0%.
Flexible Use of Funds
The SBA 7(a) loan program is widely regarded as a top choice for small businesses due to its unmatched flexibility. Unlike many traditional loans that impose strict limitations, 7(a) loans empower businesses to meet a variety of financial needs, making them versatile for nearly any business purpose or stage of growth.
What Can SBA 7(a) Do for Your CPA Practice?
Our flexible financing solutions allow you to invest in the most critical aspects of your practice, whether it's one specific area or several at once:
Purchase an Existing CPA Firm
Acquiring an established CPA firm with an SBA 7(a) loan provides a cost-effective way to take over a business with a loyal client base and recurring revenue. With manageable down payments and extended loan terms, you can secure ownership while preserving capital for operations and growth.
Buyout a Partner
Buying out a business partner in your CPA firm with an SBA 7(a) loan allows you to gain full control without depleting cash reserves. With flexible repayment terms, you can structure the buyout in a way that supports long-term financial stability and business continuity.
Refinance High-Interest Debt
Refinancing high-interest business debt with an SBA 7(a) loan can help CPA firms reduce financing costs and improve cash flow. With government-backed funding, you can access lower rates and better loan terms, freeing up resources for strategic investments.
Purchase Office Space
Owning your office can provide stability and long-term financial advantages for your CPA firm. An SBA 7(a) loan makes it easier to transition from leasing to ownership, helping you build equity while securing a permanent location for your business.
