Business loan rates vary significantly based on credit score, collateral, industry, and lender type. SBA loans typically offer lower rates (6–9%) but require more documentation. Compare at least 3 lenders before committing — even 0.5% difference on a $250K loan saves thousands over the term.

The part almost nobody publishes free

Prices and rates are widely reported. Whether a lender says yes is not. In the complete 2025 federal record, denial rates across the 100 largest FHA lenders ran from 1.8% to 78.7% — same programme, same year.

And it is not simply who applies where: standardizing on state, loan amount, income, debt-to-income and loan-to-value, applicant mix explains only a 2.7× range in expected outcomes.
