53 SBA loans have financed America's Best Value Inn locations since 2006, written by 42 different lenders across 20 states. Half were approved for $800K or less, the mix is a mix of 7(a) and 504, and 8% went to owners whose business was under two years old.
A lender that has already underwritten this brand knows the unit economics, the build-out costs, and the franchisor. That is worth more to you than a bigger bank starting from scratch.
