Is there a fee to use this?

Browsing this directory is free. Any loan fees are set by Navy FCU and the SBA program — ask the lender for its current schedule.

Who is this open to — anyone, or only residents/members?

This institution primarily serves small business owners and entrepreneurs, with eligibility based on business criteria rather than residency alone. Membership may be required for certain services.

What minimum personal credit score does this lender look for in a guarantor?

Many SBA lenders look for a personal score around 640 or higher, but each bank sets its own bar and it changes. Ask Navy FCU what it looks for today.

How long does the traditional underwriting process take from start to close?

The underwriting process generally takes between 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the completeness of your application and the complexity of your financial situation.

Is this open on weekends?

Most bank SBA teams work weekdays; confirm with Navy FCU before planning a weekend visit.

For exact directions, the entrance, and accessible parking, use the listed address or call ahead and staff can point you to visitor spaces.

Who owns or operates this listing?

This page is an independent directory listing for Navy FCU, an SBA-participating credit union. It is maintained by SBA Lenders USA to help borrowers compare lenders — not by Navy FCU itself, which runs its own lending under its own ownership.

What core industries does this lender traditionally choose to finance?

Based on its approved SBA loans, Navy FCU most often finances businesses in restaurants & food service, fitness & recreation, general retail, manufacturing, and medical practices & clinics. This reflects Navy FCU's real SBA 7(a) and 504 lending history rather than a stated policy — it can still consider other industries and sets its own current preferences, so confirm with Navy FCU which sectors it actively lends to before you apply.

Can I apply for an SBA Express line of credit at this lender?

SBA Express offers lines of credit and term loans up to $500,000 with a faster turnaround than standard 7(a) loans. Whether Navy FCU participates in SBA Express depends on its specific SBA lending authority. Contact Navy FCU and ask if it offers SBA Express and what the current limits and terms look like for your situation.

Does this lender have Preferred Lender Provider status with the government?

Whether Navy FCU has SBA Preferred Lender (PLP) status is set by the SBA. Ask the bank directly; PLP lenders can approve in-house and often move faster.

Are start-up companies eligible for financing at this lender?

The SBA does fund start-ups, but many traditional lenders prefer at least two years of operating history and may ask newer ventures for a larger equity injection or stronger collateral. Navy FCU's appetite for start-ups is set by its own credit policy. If you are early-stage or pre-revenue, ask Navy FCU directly whether it considers start-up loans.

What are the typical down payment expectations for commercial real estate acquisitions?

For SBA 7(a) and 504 commercial real estate loans, borrowers typically contribute around 10% to 20% as a down payment or equity injection, depending on the property and the deal. Exact requirements vary with your credit, the business, and the lender's policy. Ask Navy FCU what down payment it expects for your specific commercial real estate purchase.

Does this lender impose prepayment penalties on short-term working capital facilities?

SBA 7(a) loans with terms under 15 years generally carry no prepayment penalty, while longer real estate loans can have one in the early years. Short-term working capital lines often have no penalty, but terms vary by lender. Review your loan agreement and ask Navy FCU to spell out any prepayment penalties before you sign.

Can I use loan proceeds from this lender to buy out an existing equity partner?

SBA loans can be used for a partner or owner buyout, including buying out an existing equity partner, when the deal is structured to meet SBA rules — for example, the remaining owner generally must stay actively involved. Approval depends on the specifics, so discuss your buyout plan with Navy FCU to confirm it qualifies and how to document it.

Will historical personal bankruptcies automatically disqualify my loan application here?

A past personal bankruptcy does not automatically disqualify you from an SBA loan. Lenders look at how long ago it was discharged, the circumstances, and how your credit has recovered since. Navy FCU weighs this case by case under its own policy, so be upfront about your history and ask Navy FCU how it evaluates prior bankruptcies.

Not sure Navy FCU is your best shot?

Lenders differ on loan size, industry, and speed. Answer four questions and we'll shortlist 3 active SBA lenders in Virginia or nationwide, ranked by Google rating and recent SBA activity. Your loan size goes to the lenders you approve, so they know what you need before they call.
