SBA Alternative Financing: How To Buy Without SBA
SBA is not “bad.” It is often slow, eligibility-bound, and documentation-heavy. If your deal has a real closing timeline, you need a non-SBA capital stack that still clears lender underwriting.
Start with How It Works.
Buyers ask the same question when SBA is not available: “What else is bankable?”
The answer is not one magic product. It is a structured stack that fits the target’s cash flow, assets, and purchase agreement terms.
This page explains the options and how Financely runs execution through closing.
In most legitimate structures, some equity or seller support is required. If someone says otherwise, treat it as a risk signal.
How fast can non-SBA financing close?
Speed depends on financial quality, documentation readiness, and purchase agreement terms. Clean packaging compresses timelines.
Does a seller note reduce the equity requirement?
Often yes, if it is subordinated and structured to satisfy senior lender rules and covenant constraints.
What documents do you need to start?
LOI or APA, historical financials, interim statements, customer and vendor concentration, and a summary of purchase terms.
Do you provide the loan directly?
No. Financing is provided by third-party funders and regulated counterparties, subject to underwriting and compliance.
What is the first decision point?
Whether the target’s cash flow and documentation support senior credit. If that fails, the stack becomes expensive or unworkable.
Disclaimer: Financely operates as a transaction-led capital desk. Financing is subject to third-party underwriting, compliance, sanctions screening, and documented terms. Nothing on this page is a commitment to lend or an offer of securities.
