Hi Folks,
I'm currently under LOI and in the underwriting/closing stage on a $3.4M deal using the SBA in the manufacturing space. No issues so far at all, got my conditional approval within 5 days and now I'm just clearing contingencies.
I'm looking for a similar type business, but one thats smaller (just to increase the likelihood of finding one) and would potentially consider 100% owner finance with a large cash down payment. I'm told I could add more into my SBA loan but I dont want to upset or reset the process that's going perfectly smooth.
Ideal would be some type of machine shop or similar. Long term plans continue to be rolling up some of these into a manufacturing company that will expand into my home space of defense and national security.

Slightly different situation but maybe some food for thought.
