Understanding SBA Loans...

SBA 7(a)

An SBA 7(a) can finance up to $5 million and can be used for real estate, business acquisitions/change of ownership, equipment, improvements and working capital. Real-estate-related 7(a) financing can generally have maturities of up to 25 years.


That makes it particularly useful for something like:

Purchase price: $3,000,000 RV Park

The acquisition might include land, 80 RV sites, office/store, bathhouse, laundry facilities, equipment, existing operating business and goodwill. Instead of trying to separate everything into a commercial real-estate loan and business loan, a 7(a) acquisition loan can potentially finance the combined transaction.

SBA 504

SBA 504 is more appropriate when the transaction is predominantly fixed assets—for example, acquiring land/buildings, constructing or substantially renovating a campground, or purchasing long-life equipment. SBA describes the typical structure as approximately 50% bank first mortgage + up to 40% CDC/SBA financing + at least 10% borrower equity.


However, 504 cannot finance working capital or inventory, and it cannot be used for passive/speculative rental real estate.

Important issue with RV parks

The underwriting presentation matters. You want to establish that this is an operating hospitality/recreational business, with services and active management—not merely:

"We own land and rent spaces to tenants."

A campground/RV resort with transient guests, reservations, utilities, amenities, maintenance, management, laundry, store, recreational facilities, etc., presents much more clearly as an operating business.

Also, as of July 2026, SBA announced that borrowers can combine 7(a) and 504 financing for up to $10 million in SBA-backed financing, which could be interesting for larger RV resort/campground projects.
