Do you place sba & term loans for manufacturers in Chicago, IL?

Yes. SBA & Term Loans is one of the most common programs we place for Chicago-area manufacturers. Established manufacturers financing acquisitions, real estate, expansion, or refinancing higher-cost debt.

How fast can a Chicago manufacturer get sba & term loans funded?

Timelines depend on the program. For sba & term loans, most Chicago-area shops go from Quick App to first funding in the range shown in the structure table on this page. The gate is usually document turnaround on your side, not underwriting.

Do I need to be a big shop to qualify in Illinois?

No. We place sba & term loans for shops from single-owner fabricators up through $100M+ manufacturers. What matters is the revenue profile, customer credit, and the fit of the program to how you actually operate.

Are there any fees to work with Manufactor Finance?

No application, origination, or closing fees to you. We're a business consulting service — funding partners fairly compensate us for our part only after you actually receive your funds, and nothing additional is required from you.

Do I have to give up equity to get sba & term loans?

No. Every program we place — including sba & term loans — is non-dilutive. You keep 100% ownership of your shop.

How long does an SBA loan take?

SBA loans typically take 60–120 days from complete application to funding. We help you assemble a clean package up front to keep the timeline as short as possible.

SBA 7(a) or 504 — which one fits?

7(a) is the general-purpose program (working capital, equipment, acquisitions, refinance) up to $5M. 504 is specifically for owner-occupied real estate and heavy equipment, often with better long-term rates on the real estate portion.
