Though often used interchangeably, a distinct difference exists between being pre-qualified and pre-approved for a mortgage.

Gathering your business and personal information is just one step in the small business loan process, but in general, you may be asked to provide details such as:
The approval time for a small business loan can take anywhere from a few days to a few months, and depends on numerous factors, including, the type of loan applied for, your lender and if you have all the required documentation ready.
A small business is defined as an independent business having fewer than 500 employees.
The U.S. Small Business Administration is a federal agency focused on helping small business owners start, grow or expand their small businesses by partnering with lenders like Seacoast Bank to provide government-backed business loans. Since the loans are partially guaranteed by the SBA, the program enables small business owners to obtain business loans with fewer equity requirements than conventional business loans.
The Small Business Administration (SBA) is a federal agency that helps established businesses grow and helps new businesses get started. As a borrower, you’re not borrowing from the SBA, you’re borrowing from a financial institution like Seacoast Bank that partners with the SBA to provide loans to small businesses.
SBA loans offer several advantages compared to conventional business loans including lower down payments, longer terms, full amortization and no balloon payments. SBA loans can also provide financing for businesses that often find it difficult to obtain conventional financing like restaurants, auto repair facilities, self-storage facilities, start-up franchises and assisted living facilities.
The first step in applying for an SBA loan is to get an idea of which SBA loan might be right for you. Once you have determined which SBA loan is right for your business, meet with an SBA-preferred lender to discuss eligibility requirements. You’ll then apply and close on your SBA loan with your preferred lender. Some of the most common SBA loans are the:
SBA 7(A) loan, a term loan which can be used for a variety of business needs
SBA 504 loan, which is more restrictive and typically used for construction and purchase of owner-occupied commercial real estate and heavy machinery
USDA B&I loan, which can be used for a variety of business needs and is designed to assist businesses in rural communities
Seacoast Bank has been supporting small business growth in Florida since 1926. As an SBA preferred lender, our SBA team will meet with you to discuss your unique needs and work with you during the entire process.
There are numerous uses for an SBA loan such as purchasing or refinancing commercial real estate, equipment financing, debt refinancing, building improvements, business acquisitions, partner buyouts, construction, inventory purchases, working capital and more.
With a conventional business loan, the bank assumes all of the risk and the loan is subject to the bank lending requirements. With an SBA loan, the bank shares the risk with the SBA, which guarantees a portion of the loan. SBA loans are subject to the lending requirements of both the SBA and the bank.
No. An SBA loan must be approved by the issuing bank, and each bank has its own lending criteria. When you work with an SBA Preferred Lender, you are more likely to receive better terms and a faster application and closing process than a bank that is not an SBA Preferred Lender.
Yes. As an SBA Preferred Lender, Seacoast Bank is part of the SBA's effort to streamline the procedures necessary to provide financial assistance to the small business community. This means we meet all of the Preferred Lender Program eligibility criteria, including proficiency in processing and servicing SBA-guaranteed loans.
Before opening an account, assess your business needs, such as your expected average account balance and the number of transactions you’ll process each month then align those needs with an account. On a basic level, look for accounts offering:

Yes. From case studies and blogs to downloadable guides and customer success stories, our Business Insights section has free resources designed to help your company reach success.
