SBA Disaster Loan Resources

The impact the Coronavirus is starting to impact most small businesses. We hesitate to have a company create more debt, however, the right debt used as leverage can keep you going. Do your due diligence and seek support from an accountant, financial planner or business coach or to see if it makes sense for your business and situation.

Here is a link to the SBA site showing what States and their counties are eligible for lower cost disaster loans: https://www.sba.gov/disaster-assistance/coronavirus-covid-19.
