What this means for a borrower

  • Half of the 7(a) loans approved in Adams County were between $30,000 and $230,000, and the median was $75,750, 50% below the Pennsylvania median of $150,000. A request well above $230,000 would be larger than three in four 7(a) loans recorded here.
  • 61.8% of 7(a) loans here were under $150,000 (Pennsylvania: 47.3%).
  • Fewer than 10 504 loans were recorded here in the period, so nearly all SBA lending in the data was 7(a).
  • The sector with the most loans was Manufacturing (18.3% of loans), followed by Construction (15.9%).

These are counts of approved loans. The data does not show applications that were declined or withdrawn, so it says nothing about approval odds, and past volume is not a forecast for any individual request.

Figures are compiled by Precise SBA from the U.S. Small Business Administration's public 7(a) and 504 FOIA loan-level data and are shown as recorded, including lender names. They describe past approvals only: they are not rates, approval odds, a ranking or an endorsement of any lender, and not a prediction for any loan. Precise SBA is not a lender and is not affiliated with the U.S. Small Business Administration. We never charge you. If a loan closes, the lender may pay us a referral fee, disclosed on SBA Form 159 (how we get paid).
