(In strolls the State Small Business Credit Initiative)

- $7 billion on the streets now.
- Available through state-sponsored venture capital and debt programs.
- Contact your state or local government if you need small biz financing.

[Heather Endresen @EndresenHeather]

🚨Debt markets for non-SBA cash flow loans are VERY tight, and almost non-existent if the biz is <$3million EBITDA.

So, if you are planning on including debt in your deal, you will need an SBA-eligible structure in your LOI (no seller rollover, no earn-outs, no seller >12 mos)

[Rachel Reilly @Rachel__Reilly]

@bradyqg Yes. But you can go up to $500k for construction financing.

And a lot of states designed programs that bridge to SBA loans, basically providing capital until you get your C of O and can pull down the SBA loan.

[Brookings Metro @BrookingsMetro]

The influx of new federal climate funding offers unparalleled opportunities to embrace the transition to green jobs. But are cities ready to manage all these workforce needs? @jwkane1 & @AdieTomer tackle this question: https://t.co/bupzST7pvw

Loved every minute of time spent in Phoenix last week with the @USAccelerate team & partners!

[Mayor Kate Gallego @MayorGallego]

I appreciate all of our @USAccelerate partners, including mayors from across the country, who visited Phoenix this week. As a critical avenue for cities to collaborate and share solutions, convening in Phoenix speaks volumes to the ongoing successful work we're doing.

That was the point: to try something different.

To fight back against institutional investors who have been buying up the area’s affordable housing stock. Outside investors purchase 1 of 5 single-family homes in Cincinnati.
