• Minority and women small business loans guaranteed by SBA are nothing different from other loan programs but the applications are processed separately under the special guidance. Minority small business loans are given to businesses with at least 51 % minority stake holding and management control. A not for profit intermediary appraises your loan application in what is known as prequalification so that usual mistakes are eliminated and forwarded for SBA approval. SBA processes these applications within 72 hours and forwards them to banks with its guaranty. The same details are applicable for women small business loans too.
• Disaster recovery small business loans guaranteed by SBA are only applicable to such small businesses that are in the disaster hit areas. For example the recent hurricane Katrina affected Louisiana comes under this purview. The disaster recovery loans are different from the usual small business administration loans that this applies to only existing businesses that were in business for at least one year. Veterans' administration small business loans and small business equipment loans are some of them covered under this.
• It is usual for any one look for government small business administration loans when in need of cash. But some charitable and not for profit organizations that are approved and ratified by the government are also some of them you may wish to consider. For small and tiny businesses mostly owned by women the other reliable place is http://www.grameenfoundation.org Basically this falls into microfinance category. Home businesses, with less than 5 employees need not much assistance in cash. Add to it the almost nil documentation as required by the foundation. The loans are processed fast and terms are long and up to ten years.
• Do not forget the private lenders who are in the business of lending small businesses. There are venture capitals and angel investors too. One noteworthy name is http://www.ventureworthy.com
