  • Warren D, Puff N Stuff

    It gives me great pleasure to recommend you to any company that is interested in growing their business and is seeking a financial partner. I can say without question that I would not be where I am today without you in my life. As an entrepreneur, I'm a calculated risk-taker and I need someone on the other side of the table who understands my entrepreneurial ways, but views the opportunity from a pragmatic state. I've found that in you. When I think back to the financing of our first real estate project together in 2006, we ran into significant problems when the initial bank backed out of the deal post-closing on the real estate. You stepped in, found us the right primary lender, and told the story as well as I did. You're a true advocate - you see beyond the numbers and understand the vision and what we are trying to accomplish. That said, there are always parameters - we must live inside our means, and you understand that. It's an incredible balance that is difficult to find in a lending institution. Growing and leveraging my company has been both exciting and challenging, and thanks to your help I've been able to significantly grow my real estate portfolio to support the growing needs of my companies. I would highly recommend you to anyone that is seeking a relationship with a lender.

  • Jim Downey, US Ameribank

    I like to use the 504 program when a client prefers to put less down on equipment or real estate. Part of the loan gets a great long term fixed rate and the fees can be financed. Florida Business Development Corp has a great team from top to bottom. They are always willing to answer any questions and I trust them to speak directly to my clients. Not only do they help during the approval and closing process they are there during the servicing of the loans as well. FBDC has a very knowledgeable staff and is a great resource to answer all of my SBA 504 questions.

We look forward to working with you on SBA 504 financing opportunities.
