Financing for Snohomish County business owners
Anchored by Everett and supported by Lynnwood, Marysville, Edmonds, Mill Creek and Monroe, Snohomish County combines industrial strength with a growing base of healthcare, retail and technology businesses. Its aerospace roots run deep, and I-5, regional ports, rail lines and Paine Field give local companies strong connections.
Snohomish County is home to a large network of machine shops, fabricators, suppliers and trades. Those businesses often need equipment, a larger building or a line of credit to handle bigger contracts. Along with SBA 7(a) and 504 loans, manufacturers may qualify for the SBA’s Manufacturer’s Access to Revolving Credit (MARC) line of credit.
Paul and his team travel to each county when needed. That means Paul can walk a property or sit down with a buyer and seller while a deal comes together.

Common questions from Snohomish County borrowers
Do I need a lender with a branch in Snohomish County?
No. SBA lenders can finance businesses across the areas they serve, and much of the process happens by phone, email and secure document upload. Paul and his team travel to each county when needed.
Do SBA lenders care more about collateral or cash flow?
Cash flow. That said, many SBA lenders also want some level of collateral. Most lenders have their own risk tolerance when it comes to lending without collateral.
How long does the process take?
It depends on the project. A real estate purchase or business acquisition typically takes 45 to 65 days from the time you first connect with your lender. Getting the lender what they need as soon as possible makes for a faster experience.
Which SBA office covers Snohomish County?
The SBA Seattle District Office. You do not apply to the SBA directly for a 7(a) or 504 loan, though. You apply through a lender, and the lender works with the SBA on your behalf.
