Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP: 017 - SBA Loans vs Seller Financing with Jordan Cordero
Q: Why would a buyer choose an SBA loan over seller financing for an acquisition?
SBA loans offer a structured, bank-backed path that can provide potentially lower interest rates and a clear payment schedule, with the bank taking much of the repayment risk. Seller financing can be more flexible in terms of down payment and terms but places more risk on the seller and can constrain the buyer's ability to maneuver post-close; the best choice depends on the specifics of the deal and the owners' risk tolerance.
EP: 017 - SBA Loans vs Seller Financing with Jordan Cordero
Q: Is there any size of business that is a perfect fit for this type of program right now?
There is a wide range; SBA loans can support borrowers from small shops to much larger operations, with the key being whether the business has building needs, working capital needs, or acquisition goals that can be supported by cash flow. The SBA program can provide up to about 5 million in runway, and the structure varies by lender, but the fundamental is that it depends on cash flow and the ability of the combined entities to service debt.
EP: 012 - The In-House Warranty Roadmap for Contractors
Q: How does revenue and tax strategy work for the contractor when using this structure?
The contractor pays for the warranty policy through the Conduit entity, which creates a non-taxable Insurance Premium in a separate trust/insurance structure; admin fees are charged, and the funds are invested, with mechanisms to access funds later via dividends or loans, minimizing current tax impact.
EP: 012 - The In-House Warranty Roadmap for Contractors
Q: Can a contractor customize what the warranty covers while staying within legal and financial guardrails?
Yes, there is a portal with a format for claims; packages are offered (e.g., 12-year top package, 5-year mid, 1-year bottom), and adjustments are made within legal and profitability guardrails to ensure practicality and compliance.
EP: 012 - The In-House Warranty Roadmap for Contractors
Q: How is the warranty program structured for a contractor to own their own warranty company?
A contractor opens and owns a separate corporation, with admin access and a dedicated bank account; Conduit administrates the program, handles claims, accounting, and legal work, and the contractor sells units with labor warranties tied to that program.
