When it may fit

Our assessment of the published programs

  • Florida for-profit businesses buying or improving owner-used property or durable machinery.

What to weigh carefully

  • SBA eligibility, occupancy, equity and debt seasoning apply; advertised rates and cash-out eligibility require a current project quote.
  • Standard 504 proceeds exclude inventory and ordinary working capital.

Questions before you accept an offer

  1. What equity and occupancy apply to this project?
  2. Which existing debt and business expenses qualify for refinancing?

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.

Alternatives to research

These are options for a related financing need, not a ranking or a claim of equivalent eligibility or pricing.

Florida First Capital Finance

Compare Florida First Capital Finance for another Florida SBA 504 route for fixed assets.

Black Business Investment Fund

For a smaller Florida business need, compare BBIF CDFI lending; its loan uses and underwriting differ from 504.
