Using an SBA loan to buy a business

Have you heard that a Small Business Administration loan (or “SBA loan”) is what you need to help make your business plan a reality? As an SBA Preferred Lender, First Financial Bank can provide you with the information you need to navigate the SBA loan process.

What is an SBA loan?

Small Business Administration (SBA) loans are backed by the government to help mitigate the risk and encourage lenders to support these types of businesses with the capital they need. Typically, these types of loans have lower down payments, competitive interest rates, and better repayment terms than conventional bank loans.

Having earned the Preferred Lending Program designation from the Small Business Administration, First Financial Bank and our team of experienced loan officers can help answer any of the questions you may have.
