Options Before Defaulting on a Government Loan

An SBA loan default is not a small matter. Having an SBA loan default can be financial dread for many small business owners. People who are left in such a slump may be forced to close their business offices. Better yet, they may be forced to sell off all of their business assets. This is only “the tip of the iceberg.” One foolhardy mistake SBA borrowers seem to make is that they will pay back the loan without any plan of action. As silly as it may sound, it is a fairly common occurrence.

Implications of a Government Backed Loan

For some reason, many people believe that a government backed loan will not carry the same implications as one from a financial institution. In some cases, not paying back a government backed loan could be worse. One reason is because you are dealing with the government. In other words, you are dealing with an entity responsible for authorizing the law of the land.

The government is not a small bank entity who will simply write off the default as a charge-off on your credit report. Owing the federal government and not paying them back is the last thing you would want to do.
