Did it turn out that your desired use of funds isn’t covered by an SBA loan? Don’t worry. Lenders, including us, provide other business and personal financing options that can help with your specific needs.

For example, if you’re looking to acquire a business and need cash quickly, an SBA 7(a) loan’s turnaround time may not be ideal. However, at BHG Financial, we also provide business loans that can give you the funds you need in as few as 3 days*—helping you take advantage of opportunities as soon as they present themselves.
