Hopefully, you and those close to you have come away safely from Hurricanes Charley and Frances.  We are sure you'll join us in wishing Ivan and any others will blow away from us.  That being said, here's the latest news and information from MCC...

Total Capital Savings Tops $3.85 Million!

A survey of our first 25 commercial loans shows a total capital savings of over $3.85 million as the result of our 504 loan program.  Analysis of our first 25 504 loans that have closed since July 2003 shows a total loan volume of $25,539,809, averaging just over $1,000,000 per loan.  The total value of our projects came to $30,745,268.  As a result of the capital savings by providing 90% financing of the total project costs, the SBA requires one new job be created or retained for every $50,000 in government-guaranteed funding.  According to this measure, our lending activity has generated an estimated 221 new jobs in Florida in the last twelve months.  Since our first 25 borrowers didn't have to put over $3.85 million into their commercial real estate purchases, you can see how the equity savings easily translated into so many new jobs.  Additionally, these calculations did not take into account that our borrowers, when they go from leasing their property to owning, generally save up to 40% of their real estate expenses.  

If you would like to find out how your business or one you know can save equity through lower down payments, cut costs through lower monthly payments, and have more capital on hand to grow, contact us now by calling toll free at 866-622-4504 or visit MCC online at www.504experts.com.
