'504 Loan Refinancing Regulations Released for June Implementation' - Contreras-Sweet

SBA Administrator Maria Contreras-Sweet announced the move in front of SBA 504 industry leaders Monday during a conference organized by the National Association of Development Companies (NADCO) saying, "We are on target to take 504 refi applications in June."

Congress originally established the program on a temporary basis from 2010 to 2012. However, after it reached its sunset date, the expiring refinancing option left 400 small businesses still awaiting service yet unable to use the program. Four years later, the program is now expected to attract small businesses that seek 504 refinancing interest savings that can be reinvested into their businesses.

"I would like offer my sincere thanks to SBA for all of its hard work in expediting the release of these regulations.  Now, the debt refinancing program can help small businesses in need of refinance even sooner! It was a treat for our members to learn about the release of the regulations from the Administrator herself, during her keynote speech at the NADCO Spring Summit," said Barbara A. Vohryzek, president and CEO of NADCO.

Vohryzek testified last May in front of the House Small Business Committee in support of the legislation that Congress passed in December.
