According to an article from the Ultimate Business Capital, there are different types of SBA loans. These include the most popular 7(a) loans which can be used for working capital and equipment and real estate purchases. There is also the 504 loan which is specifically used for purchasing or constructing major and real estate equipment. Microloans, on the other hand, are a smaller amount of loans.

A borrower must operate a for-profit business in the U.S. The borrower must have invested an equity like time and money into their business. They must also be able to show that they need financing and the purpose for which the funds will be used. Most importantly, the business must be small as what is defined by the SBA.
