Loan closing statement

In short

A detailed document outlining all funds disbursed and received, fees, and charges related to your SBA 7(a) loan and the business acquisition. It ensures transparency and accuracy.

What it means in a deal

This statement, often prepared by the closing attorney, itemizes the entire flow of funds, including your equity injection, the loan proceeds, seller note, broker fees, legal fees, and working capital. Review it meticulously before signing to confirm all numbers align with your understanding and the LOI.
