When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

  • Useful for comparing a conventional loan with SBA financing while checking whether the business fits the specific channel.

What to weigh carefully

  • The standalone Express and 504 pages differ from the main page on maturity ranges; request a current written program sheet.
  • The conventional exclusions are not a blanket statement about all Western Alliance specialty lending.
  • Bridge Bank is now part of this same bank, not an independent competing creditor.

Questions before you accept an offer

  1. Which team and program will consider my industry?
  2. What is the actual term, amortization and balloon balance?
  3. Which collateral, bank and third-party fees apply?

Ask for written terms. Compare net cash received, total repayment, fees, payment timing and early-payoff costs for the same financing need.

Prepare your comparison

Use the same questions and figures for each offer you receive.
