145 SBA loans have financed Hampton Inn locations since 2010, written by 79 different lenders across 35 states. Half were approved for $3.8M or less, the mix is 504-heavy, and 36% 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.
