This week on The Art of SBA Lending, we explore the world of USDA Business & Industry (B&I) lending, often considered the "last frontier" of government-guaranteed small business finance. Host Ray Drew, who admits to knowing very little about the program, is joined by a panel of USDA experts—Steve Small, Jason Hoerr, and Charles Conoley—to demystify this often misunderstood loan program. The panel provides a deep dive into the B&I program, which is designed to stimulate economic activity and job creation in rural areas (populations of 50,000 or less). They reveal key advantages over the SBA 7(a), including larger loan amounts (up to $25 million), 30-year terms on real estate, and eligibility for investment real estate and non-profits. We tackle the common misconception that USDA loans take forever, clarifying that acquisitions can be approved in 2-4 weeks after bank approval. The panel explains why the USDA culture is fundamentally different from the SBA, acting more as a participant in a conventional loan rather than a strict insurer. Finally, we dive into the controversial question: Should the USDA B&I program be absorbed by the SBA?
