SBA Loan Guarantee Fees:
- A guarantee fee of 0-3.5%, based on your loan’s maturity and the dollar amount guaranteed, which may be included in the total cost of the loan
- Remember, the SBA isn’t lending to you directly—and it doesn’t guarantee 100% of the bank’s loan. That’s why the “dollar amount guaranteed” is different from the “total loan amount.”
- The SBA charges a guarantee fee for the service of guaranteeing the loan. The lender originally pays the guarantee fee, but it will pass that expense on to the borrower. These fees range from 0% for loans under $150K and up to 3.5% on loans of more than $700K. There’s also an additional fee of 0.25% on any guaranteed portion of the loan in excess of $1 million. Many lenders do not do SBA loans under $350,000.
