The common refrain had always been that small business is the engine that drives the economy.  For politicians, one has to support Main Street and small business.  Economists aren't so sure.

In recent years, a more and more economists have argued that small businesses are not the job creators they’re often believed to be. Now, a working paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research is making the case that government support, that is, SBA loans,  for small business owners is holding back economic growth.

Researchers at West Virginia University and Georgia Institute for Technology compared 30 years of data on loans backed by the Small Business Administration to county-level income growth. In sum, the paper found that a 10 percent increase in SBA loans to businesses in a given county was associated with a 2-percentage point decrease in income growth.

The SBA’s 7a programs don’t lend money to small businesses directly; they guarantee up to 90 percent of loans made by commercial banks. Supporters of those loan programs will say that the government earns enough in fees to cover losses from defaults, limiting cost to taxpayers.

$383,000 SBA 7A LOAN - NEGOTIATED RELEASE OF LIEN FOR CONSIDERATION

$383,000 SBA 7A LOAN - NEGOTIATED RELEASE OF LIEN FOR CONSIDERATION

Clients executed several trust deeds pledging seven (7) real estate properties and unconditional personal guarantees for an SBA 7(a) loan from the participating lender. The clients' small business failed and eventually defaulted on repayment of the loan exposing all collateral pledged by the clients. The SBA subsequently acquired the loan balance from the lender, including the right to liquidate  and collect all pledged collateral pursuant to the trust deed instruments.

The Firm was hired to negotiate separate release of lien proposals for all 7 real estate properties. In preparation for the work assignment, the Firm Attorneys initiated discovery  to secure records from the SBA and Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service. After reviewing the records and understanding the interplay between the lender and the SBA, the attorneys then prepared, submitted and negotiated the release of lien (ROL) for each of the 7 real estate properties for consideration.

After submitting the proposals, the assigned SBA Loan Specialists approved each ROL package - significantly reducing the total SBA debt claimed.

$150,000 SBA 7A LOAN - NEGOTIATED WORKOUT AGREEMENT

The client personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan for $150,000. His business revenue decreased significantly causing default and an accelerated balance of $143,000. The client received the SBA's Official 60-day notice with the debt scheduled for referral to the Treasury’s Bureau of Fiscal Service for aggressive collection in less than 26 days. We were hired to represent him, respond to the SBA's Official 60-day notice, and prevent enforced collection by the Treasury and the Department of Justice. We successfully negotiated a structured workout with an extended maturity date that included a reduction of the 14% interest rate and removal of substantial collection fees (30% of the loan balance), effectively saving the client over $242,000.
