23 SBA loans have financed Mainstay Suites locations since 1998, written by 19 different lenders across 12 states. Half were approved for $1.4M or less, the mix is 504-heavy, and 39% 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.
