Unlocking the Path to Big Profits: SBA Loans to Buy Commercial Properties Explained!

On this week’s episode of Breaking into CRE, I am joined by Alex Leykind to discuss buying commercial real estate (CRE) with SBA Loan Programs. The SBA has 2 types of loan programs to help small businesses expand and grow. Many people know the loan funds can be used for equipment, operational expenses and working capital. However, we wanted to dive into the purchase of Commercial Real Estate!
