You signed a personal guarantee for an SBA loan, either a limited or unlimited guarantee. You've had a falling out with your business partners and you want out of the guarantee. Do you have any options?
Yes, you can be released from the guarantee or substitute in another guarantor with the following considerations:
(1) The status of the loan. It should be current in all respects without a history of unjustified delinquencies, unpaid taxes, or deferment of installments.
(2) Written requests. The field office must have a written request from the borrower, the guarantor to be released, or the proposed substitute.
(3) Consent of other parties. The written consent of all parties (e.g., other guarantors, standby creditors, etc.) must be obtained before the transaction is finalized.
(4) Opinion of counsel. You must obtain the opinion of SBA counsel showing that no legal rights of the Agency will be adversely affected.
(5) Sale or reorganization. Where a request is received for the release of a guarantor because of reorganization or sale of the firm, you must provide full information as to the terms and conditions of the proposed transaction. The SBA must take care to ensure that the guarantor's position is not improved at the expense of SBA, or that a possible loss to the guarantor is not passed on to the Agency. The guarantor should not be permitted to substitute SBA for his or her ownership position
(6) Evaluation of substitute guarantors. Before the SBA can recommend accepting a substitute guarantor in place of the original, the SBA will analyze/compare the values of the guarantors. The borrower must furnish personal financial statements and any other information satisfactory to the approving official.
If you can make it through the SBA gauntlet it is possible to be released from your guarantee. If you are facing this or other SBA loan problems, please contact us at 888-756-9969 for a consultation.

Our firm successfully resolved an SBA COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) default in the amount of $150,000 on behalf of Illinois-based client.

We guided the client through the SBA’s Business Closure Review process, prepared a comprehensive financial submission, and negotiated directly with the SBA to release the collateral securing the loan. The borrower satisfied their collateral obligations with a payment of $2,075, resolving the SBA’s security interest.

Our firm successfully resolved an SBA COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) in the original amount of $150,000 for a Florida-based borrower. The loan, issued on June 4, 2020, was secured by business assets and potential personal liability through the SBA's Security Agreement.
Following the permanent closure of the business, we guided the client through the SBA’s Business Closure Review process and prepared a comprehensive collateral analysis.

Clients personally guaranteed SBA 504 loan balance of $750,000. Clients also pledged the business’s equipment/inventory and their home as additional collateral.

Instead, we negotiated an acceptable term repayment agreement and release of lien on the home.
