Three owners, three deals
Holly is purchasing a commercial maintenance and snow company with nine trucks, and the contracts she knows so well earn no collateral credit.
Owen has run crews for the same lawn and tree company for seven years and is purchasing it from the retiring founder, where stock or assets decides how much cash he needs.
Kristen is purchasing a snow plowing company across town, then opening a Seasonal CAPLine for the spring build-up.
Every rule is checked against SBA SOP 50 10 8.1 (effective October 1, 2026), 13 CFR Part 120, and current SBA notices.
