Listening to each other to build a powerful resource . . .

May 24th, 2006 | 12:02 pm

One of the greatest reasons we had for starting this 504 blog is that as small business owners ourselves, we recognize the importance of listening to and learning from our clients and our valuable referral partners. We hope this SBA 504 Loan forum will be a great resource for both business owners wanting to build or buy their commercial properties, as well as commercial real estate professionals like ourselves to learn from each other and more about 504 loans and their benefits.

504 Blog Entrepreneurs: what's the good, the bad, and the ugly of what it's like navigating through the commercial lending or commercial real estate process, and what other related experiences have you had in your own business? What advice would you like from us or the other commercial real estate experts involved with this blog? What advice can you share with other entrepreneurs in or about to start the process?

For our referral partners: what has been your experience with the clients you've worked with? What are their greatest concerns? What do you (as a real estate broker, mortgage broker, CDC, etc.) want to see from a lender? What would you like to know more about from your peers on the 504 Blog?
