SBA underwriting is unforgiving — a 51% owner-occupancy miss, a missing 3-year business P&L, or a global cash flow that doesn't clear 1.15× will stop a deal cold. AssetForge Underwriter is calibrated to current SOP 50 10 guidance: it reads the documents, checks eligibility line-by-line, and outputs a memo your loan officer can act on.
Upload property financials, business tax returns, and the purchase agreement. The report covers business cash flow (BCF), DSCR, collateral coverage, personal guaranty math, and whether the structure fits 7(a) vs 504 vs conventional.
We publish one full reference report so you can read every section before you upload anything. The structure is identical for commercial / sba deals — the same 14 sections, the same depth, the same lender-ready output.
Owner-occupancy %, size standards, credit elsewhere, use-of-proceeds — each checked against current SOP with a pass/fail/flag verdict.
Business + personal cash flow combined. Most SBA lenders want 1.15×+ global — the report computes it and stress-tests against a rate shock.
Recommends which program fits based on loan size, use-of-proceeds, and down-payment availability. Explains the trade-offs plainly.
Tells you how much of the deal is unsecured — and how that will affect your personal guarantee and interest rate.
Our commercial real estate underwriting service runs SBA 7(a), SBA 504, and conventional commercial scenarios in parallel and tells you which path produces the best terms. Owner-occupied flex, light industrial, retail, professional office, and mixed-use commercial are all supported. The output is a Deal Analysis Memo formatted for direct submission to your SBA lender or bank credit committee.
Commercial DSCR analysis at AssetForge goes beyond the standard property-level DSCR — we compute global DSCR (business cash flow + property NOI + personal cash flow), test against a 200bps rate shock, and explicitly model collateral coverage including personal-guarantee math. Output includes the exact ratio your underwriter will compute.
SBA eligibility is a 100-page rulebook. Our SBA eligibility module screens every relevant SOP 50 10 8 requirement — affiliation, size standards, owner-occupancy %, use of proceeds, credit elsewhere — and returns a Pass / Conditional / Fail verdict per program. If the deal fails SBA, the report routes it to conventional or USDA B&I where applicable.
Yes. SBA 7(a) business acquisition deals are analyzed using last 3 years of business tax returns, add-backs, and seller financing structure. The output includes a goodwill breakdown and collateral shortfall calc.
Absolutely. The report runs SBA + conventional in parallel and tells you which path gets you better terms. Many deals pencil better on the conventional side.
The engine is calibrated to the 2026 SOP 50 10 8 guidelines and is updated within weeks of any SOP revision.
