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.
Small business owners have access to financing that is guaranteed. This funding option helps them to acquire everything they need to start their business. This may include acquiring a property, inventory, or machinery for their business. However, businesses that are prospering may face financial issues due to delinquent loan payments. A SBA Offer in Compromise could provide them with an opportunity to reduce the repercussions for these failures.
The business owner receives a SBA demand letter when they are in default on their loan. The damage letter may require them to pay the entire balance of their account. To avoid immediate foreclosure of the property used as collateral for the loan, the business owner needs to contact an attorney. They should provide the attorney with the letter and any correspondences received from their lender. The business owner must take quick action when they have a SBA loan default. If they don't, the lender can foreclose on the property and destroy their credit.
A SBA offer is a percentage of the total loan value. Since the loan is guaranteed by the Small Business Administration, the consumer may have some leverage. This guarantee ensures the lender that they will receive a portion of the loan. However, the consumer will be required to pay the remaining balance. By submitting a settlement offer, the business owner prevents the potential damage caused by foreclosure.
A SBA loan foreclosure indicates that the lender has started the seizure process. They will place the property up for auction once they have possession. They sell it to the highest bidder. Any balance that is left over requires the borrower to pay off. If an attorney can acquire a settlement offer, the borrower avoids these consequences completely.
Small businesses need help when they are facing foreclosure. Once they are at least ninety-days delinquent, their lender can take legal action to take their property. The foreclosure process can have a lasting effect on the business owner and their ability to continue to operate their business. Company owners who need assistance with a settlement offer or Tax Offset Program should contact an attorney now.

The client personally guaranteed an SBA 504 loan balance of $375,000. Debt had been cross-referred to the Treasury at the time we got involved with the case. We successfully had debt recalled to the SBA where we then presented an SBA OIC that was accepted for $58,000.
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.
Client personally guaranteed SBA 7(a) loan for $350,000. The small business failed but because of the personal guarantee liability, the client continued to pay the monthly principal & interest out-of-pocket draining his savings. The client hired a local attorney but quickly realized that he was not familiar with SBA-backed loans or their standard operating procedures. Our firm was subsequently hired after the client received the SBA's official 60-day notice. After back-and-forth negotiations, we were able to convince the SBA to reinstate the loan, retract the acceleration of the outstanding balance, modify the original terms, and approve a structured workout reducing the interest rate from 7.75% to 0% and extending the maturity date for a longer period to make the monthly payments affordable. In conclusion, not only we were able to help the client avoid litigation and bankruptcy, but our SBA lawyers also saved him approximately $227,945 over the term of the workout.
