52 SBA loans have financed Bee Hive Homes Of America locations since 1998, written by 22 different lenders across 9 states. Half were approved for $373K or less, the mix is a mix of 7(a) and 504, and 46% 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.
