Ryan Dumas and the GRP Capital team are very happy to have closed another Carolina beach hotel loan. Our clients decided to embark on an SBA 504 loan, utilizing the Green program. They will be adding solar panels to their hotel, reducing electric consumption and bills.
Senior Associate Ryan Dumas and our entire team collaborated with our very motivated clients to get this somewhat complex loan closed.
Ryan, who has now closed three loans with this client, stated:
I really value this client group and was so happy that they came to me for a third time to find financing. The lead borrower has a lot of knowledge about this resort community. Of course, he is an excellent hotelier. It was critical to place this loan with the SBA 504 Green Program. When you use the Green program, it preserves eligibility. Since the partners have other SBA loans, they didn’t max out with this loan. And now they are installing solar panels, which are ideal for sunny climates. Even more importantly, this kept the loan affordable, as the partners have other future business deals in mind.
Advantages of the Green Program for a Beach Hotel
- There are certain limits to an SBA 504 loan. However, utilizing a Green Loan does not “count against” your eligibility.
- Green Loans can be used to reduce energy costs and to utilize renewable energy. A sunny and/or windy location near a beach is perfectly situated.
- We are very careful to ensure sufficient SBA eligibility prior to choosing a loan vehicle. If you have any questions about what this means, please contact us.
- The 504 program requires utilizing a Certified Development Company (CDC). The CDC is SBA’s community-based nonprofit partners who promote economic development within their communities. CDCs are certified and regulated by SBA.
- GRP Capital has connections with multiple CDC’s across the nation and the lenders who are interested in 504 loans.
