SMALL BUSINESS ADMINSITRATION ("SBA") LOANS

The Small Business Administration ("SBA") was established by Congress in 1953 to foster economic development and provide financial assistance to small businesses.

At Community Bank of Nevada we are dedicated to small business. Our SBA Programs allow us to offer loans for a variety of small business financing needs. Through a relationship with the Small Business Administration, Community Bank of Nevada is able to offer secured real estate financing with as little as 10% down for construction, or purchase of owner-occupied real estate.

Community Bank of Nevada has been designated as a member of SBA's Preferred Lender Program ("PLP"). This means that Community Bank of Nevada can approve certain loan requests on behalf of the SBA, which results in a quicker turn around time for loan approvals and funding. The SBA's Preferred Lender Program is designed for lending partners that have a valued expertise of SBA lending products.
