Hard Money Loans

This is a very complicated issue with many contributing factors: Some of the issues are net worth, income, spousal income, protected retirement investments, family, basic overhead, secured debt, other assets, other business interests, medical issues, education, age, where you love, what the assets in your business are worth, structure of the offer, and previous income history to name a few. There are just as many more not listed as each case is unique and each case requires a unique evaluation and presentation. Each case requires its own special evaluation.

So, the small business owner cannot refinance his home or even sell it, cannot borrow again, and cannot do anything because the liens remain on himself and his home. Is this an Offer in Compromise program? No, it’s a retribution and punishment program.

Lets review. As we know, the defaulted borrower of an SBA guaranteed loan must present his Offer in Compromise to his lending banker for review and ratification and then for him to send it over to the SBA for final consideration. If deemed acceptable and appropriate, it is then sent over to the SBA where it is decided with a response to the borrower being: yes, no, or a counter-offer is provided.

Recently, we have observed the return time from when an offer is submitted is down to three to four months. In some instances, it’s much, much less; weeks even. And we actually get to discuss and negotiate with the lending banker a resolution which if he/she supports has a very good chance of being accepted.
