What Is an SBA 504 Loan?
The SBA 504 program provides financing for the purchase of fixed assets, which usually means real estate, buildings, and machinery, at fixed, low rates. This program helps small business owners in the purchase of commercial properties, machinery, and equipment.
It also provides long-term, fixed-rate financing up to $5 million, and is available via Certified Development Companies (CDCs), which are certified and regulated by the SBA.
While there are many specific assets that may qualify for this type of financing, here are the most common options:
- New facilities
- Existing buildings
- Existing land
- Long-term equipment and machinery
- Existing facility improvements
- Land and utility improvements

- Have less than $15 million in tangible net worth
- Have less than $5 million in average net income after federal income taxes for at least two years preceding your SBA application
