Half of all approvals in this industry and state fell between $83,000 and $572,500. A request well outside that band is not impossible — it draws more scrutiny on collateral and management experience.

Only completed fiscal years are shown. The SBA fiscal year ends 30 September; a partial year compared against full ones makes any industry look like it is closing.

Where this comes from

The SBA publishes every approved 7(a) and 504 loan under FOIA: the lender, the borrower's state, the industry code, the amount, the term and the initial rate. We indexed 4 fiscal years of it, alongside Census and BLS data. Figures on this page are as published on 2026-06-30.

This page reports approvals. It says nothing about how many applications were declined, and it is not a prediction about yours. This site is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by the U.S. Small Business Administration.
