Can't wait to grow my small business!!

I needed a loan to expand my small business when I found Loan Bud and Angela. I was nervous about the process because I didn’t have much knowledge going in, but Angela made me feel at ease every step of the way. She answered all of my questions and addressed my concerns thoroughly. The paperwork and overall process were straightforward. I’m excited to grow my small business and am truly grateful to Angela and Loan Bud for making it possible.

No risk, take a chance!

I was very hesitant to use a service like LoanBud, but decide to give it chance after discussing the program with Angela Sharrett. Her detailed explanation of the process and confidence she exhibited during our first meeting ensuring me she would get me the best fit for my requirements. She exceeded my expectation and championed the program to the finish line. It is refreshing to have someone willing to go the extra yard to help me get my deal done. Highly recommend!

Great team and great communication!

Grey and Sylvia were fantastic to work with. Quick response to any questions I had and we're right helped with all needs to make the process as painless as possible. Kept a good line of communication even through a government shutdown which prolonged the process. Highly pleased with experiance and will fully recommend to anyone.

Time consuming and confusing

Overall, the process was more confusing and time-consuming than I expected, with a lot of different people involved along the way. I found it much easier to work directly with my local lender. By the time I reached that point, I had already invested a significant amount of time and my credit had been pulled, so I decided to continue and ultimately did receive my loan. Everyone I interacted with was genuinely kind and I appreciate their help, but in the future I would choose my local lender instead.

Hi Keri,

Thank you for sharing this honest feedback. We’re happy you received your loan in the end, but we’re sorry the process felt confusing and involved more people than you expected. SBA financing can be complex, but it’s on us to simplify that for you — and clearly we have room to improve.

We’re grateful you stuck with the process after the time you invested and the credit pull, and we truly appreciate your kind words about our team. We’re taking your comments to heart and using them to tighten our communication and reduce unnecessary steps.

SBA When no one else could

After being told no by countless other firms and brokers, Grey and the LoanBud team helped me secure an SBA loan. From start to finish Grey and Ebony were straightforward, professional and knew how to get things accomplished. I would highly recommend working with them to anyone.

The Results Were Worth the Wait

The process took quite a long time to complete but everyone from LoanBud were very professional and made sure that all the "I's" were dotted and the "t's" crossed. SBA loans are rich in complexity and the process would be difficult to navigate without a company like LoanBud to help. The results were worth the wait.
