Steps For Achieving An SBA Offer In Compromise

Business owners who face financial difficulties could also face devastating effects. These effects could lead to foreclosure of their commercial property. For these business owners, this could cause damaging effects on their credit and prevent them from starting new ventures in the future. A local attorney could help them request a SBA Offer in Compromise today.

Why Should the Business Owner Use This Option?

This options allows the attorney to negotiate a settlement offer. The settlement offer is considerably lower than the total loan value. This makes it easier for the business owner to settle the debt. Since this action ensures recovery of the loan, most lenders will accept the offer based on the guarantee to pay this value in full. Business owners who wish to acquire this opportunity should take action as soon as they receive the SBA demand letter.

Evaluating the Ability to Pay

Before a SBA loan foreclosure, the business owner should hire an attorney. The attorney helps them to calculate a fair settlement. The value could equate to up to fifty percent of the total loan value. When this request is submitted to the lender, the borrower should provide documentation of their income to prove their ability to pay. If they choose to sale their commercial property, they could provide documentation about the sale to show their ability to pay the debt.

Settling Tax Debts

Business owners who are facing the effects of a loan default may also have overdue taxes. When this is the case, they also face seizure through the IRS of their assets. An attorney could also help them to enter into a Tax Offset Program. This could help them to acquire a settlement for their overdue taxes and eliminate these debts altogether. It is possible for them to acquire an installment plan to pay off overdue tax payments.

Business owners who experience financial difficulties could face defaults and foreclosure. These effects could present a damaging effect on their credit and disqualify them for more government-backed loans in the future. Business owners who are facing a SBA loan default should contact an attorney today to acquire more information about their options.

$50,000 SBA 7A LOAN - RESPONSE TO SBA OFFICIAL 60-DAY NOTICE

$50,000 SBA 7A LOAN - RESPONSE TO SBA OFFICIAL 60-DAY NOTICE

Client received the SBA's Official 60-Day Notice for a loan that was obtained by her small business in 2001.  The SBA loan went into default in 2004 but after hearing nothing from the SBA lender or the SBA for 20 years, out of the blue, she received the SBA's collection due process notice which provided her with only one of four options: (1) repay the entire accelerated balance immediately; (2) negotiate a repayment arrangement; (3) challenge the legal enforceability of the debt with evidence; or (4) request an OHA hearing before a U.S. Administrative Law Judge.

Client hired the Firm to represent her with only 13 days left before the expiration deadline to respond to the SBA's Official 60-Day Notice.  The Firm attorneys immediately researched the SBA's Official loan database to obtain information regarding the 7(a) loan.  Thereafter, the Firm attorneys conducted legal research and asserted certain affirmative defenses challenging the legal enforceability of the debt.  A written response was timely filed to the 60-Day Notice with the SBA subsequently agreeing with the client's affirmative defenses and legal arguments.  As a result, the SBA rendered a decision immediately terminating collection of the debt against the client's alleged personal guarantee liability saving her $50,000.
