SBA loans
SBA 7(a) loans deliver up to 25-year terms for real estate and up to 10 years for equipment or working capital, backed by a federal guarantee that encourages lenders to approve requests conventional banks might decline. For Hewitt, where retail centers along FM 3051 and service businesses near Midway High School drive steady employment, SBA financing covers growth without requiring immediate cash reserves. Scarletgate Financial brokers these loans by matching your business profile to participating lenders, then organizing financial statements, tax returns, business plans, and collateral schedules into the format underwriters expect.
Checklist to prepare: - Two years of business and personal tax returns - Year-to-date profit-and-loss statement and balance sheet - Personal financial statement for each owner holding 20 percent or more - Business debt schedule listing every existing loan
SBA loans
A Hewitt HVAC contractor planning to purchase a second service bay near the intersection of Old McGregor Road and FM 3051 needed capital for the building and new diagnostic equipment. The owner's bank approved only half the request as a conventional loan. Scarletgate Financial structured an SBA 7(a) loan that covered the full purchase plus working capital for inventory, spreading repayment over 20 years. The broker gathered lease agreements, equipment quotes, and franchise disclosure documents, then submitted the package to three SBA-preferred lenders. Within 60 days the contractor received a commitment letter and closed 30 days later.

Scarletgate Financial operates as a broker, not a lender. That means we organize your paperwork, identify lenders whose credit-box criteria match your industry and collateral, and guide you through conditional-approval requests without charging application fees upfront.

For Hewitt businesses juggling daily operations, this hands-off approach keeps your SBA application moving while you focus on customers.
Broker advantages: - Access to multiple SBA-preferred lenders in one submission cycle - Pre-screening that flags documentation gaps before formal underwriting - Coordination of third-party reports like appraisals and environmental assessments - Plain-language explanations of lender conditions and covenants
