Prepare and File the SBA Loan Offer In Compromise
Defaulted SBA Loan Offer in Compromise? Answers to questions by borrowers in SBA default considering submitting a fully compliant Offer in Compromise.
As part of our continuing objective to try and even out the playing field – or, battleground for those with an SBA loan default and need some background information, we will be posting videos, articles and commentary on some of the tactics and strategic mental impressions that lenders (and their lawyers), the CDC, the SBA and the DOT consider when dealing with an SBA loan default so that you can “know your adversary.”
Hopefully, by “knowing your SBA adversary,” small business borrowers, obligors and SBA personal guarantors can gain some leverage when dealing with an SBA loan default.
In this video clip, the Coleman Report representative discusses with a lawyer who represents lenders and bankers with their SBA loan issues regarding lender liability during the SBA Offer in Compromise process.

Clients personally guaranteed an SBA 504 loan balance of $337,000. The Third Party Lender had obtained a Judgment against the clients. We represented clients before the SBA and negotiated an SBA OIC that was accepted for $30,000.
Our firm successfully resolved an SBA 7a loan in the original amount of $364,000 for a New Jersey-based borrower. The client filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy but the mortgage on his real estate securing the loan remained in place. The available equity amounted to $263,470 and the deficiency equaled $317,886.
We gathered the pertinent documentation and prepared a comprehensive collateral analysis. We negotiated directly with the SBA, obtaining a full release of the mortgage for $80,000.
Clients' 7(a) loan was referred to Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service for enforced collection in 2015. They not only personally guaranteed the loan, but also pledged their primary residence as additional collateral. One of the clients filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy thinking that it would discharge the SBA 7(a) lien encumbering their home. They later discovered that they were mistakenly advised. The Firm was subsequently hired to review their case and defend against a series of collection actions. Eventually, we were able to negotiate a structured workout for $180,000 directly with the SBA, saving them approximately $250,000 (by reducing the default interest rate and removing Treasury's substantial collection fees) and from possible foreclosure.
