As a small business owner, you may wonder if taking out a small business loan impacts your credit score. The answer to this question depends on a few factors. In many cases, small business loan defaults do not impact your personal credit score. However, there are a few situations where a small business loan can have an impact on your personal credit score. Protect Law Group is here to talk about knowing the right time and situation to get and not get a business loan. Get your finances handled by a team that cares by contacting us today!
There are a few situations where it's not a good idea to take out a small business loan default, even if you're confident you'll be able to make the payments. First, if your business is in a very early stage of development, it may not be wise to take out a loan. Your business may not yet have the revenue necessary to make loan payments.
In addition, if you have bad personal credit, you may not want to take out a small business loan. This is because lenders will likely view you as a high-risk borrower. As a result, you may be offered less favorable terms, such as a higher interest rate. If your business doesn't need the money immediately, it may be better to wait until your credit improves.
If you default on a small business loan, your personal credit score may be impacted. Defaulting on a small business loan can damage your personal credit score in the same way that defaulting on any other type of loan would damage your credit score. If you're considering taking out a small business loan default, make sure that you will be able to make the payments on time.

There are a few other situations where a small business loan default may impact your personal credit score. For example, if you use a personal guarantee to secure the loan, your personal credit score may be impacted if you default on the loan. Additionally, if you take out a small business loan and use your home as collateral, your personal credit score may be impacted if you default on the loan.

Clients borrowed and personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan. Clients defaulted on the SBA loan and were sued in federal district court for breach of contract. The SBA lender demanded the Client pledge several personal real estate properties as collateral to reinstate and secure the defaulted SBA loan. We were subsequently hired to intervene and aggressively defend the lawsuit. After several months of litigation, our attorneys negotiated a reinstatement of the SBA loan and a structured workout that did not involve any liens against the Client's personal real estate holdings.

Clients personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan that was referred to the Department of Treasury for collection. Treasury claimed our clients owed over $220,000 once it added its statutory collection fees and interest. We were able to negotiate a significant reduction of the total claimed amount from $220,000 to $119,000, saving the clients over $100,000 by arguing for a waiver of the statutory 28%-30% administrative fees and costs.
