I chose not use all of the proceeds of the PPP on eligible expenses and now have a balance to repay. I understood what I was doing when I did this and it was not a surprise. The repayment period is 9 months starting this month. We are lucky enough to have picked up a large amount of work that is about to kick off and cash flow is now a concern while we ramp up for it.

I am wondering if any third party lenders are refinancing these promissory notes for longer terms. I see on the SBA website that they are allowing banks to sell these promissory notes and still keep the SBA guarantee of them. I have reached out to my banker and am still waiting for a response but figured that there was a lender somewhere that could facilitate this. Anyone have any insights?

The amount I'm looking to refinance is about $160k over an 18-24 month period. We are a Louisiana company that works mostly in Texas.

Just curious on why you would choose this.

hindsight is 20/20 bro but they were basically rubberstamping forgiveness for small loans. my total was right at 160 and all i did was fill out the application and send it in, got forgiven that same week.

you couldn't figure something out?

in any event, if you have a decent banking relationship you should be able to refinance the debt and get extended terms. you are going to have to put up collateral though, i'd imagine

Go apply for an EIDL loan. Use those proceeds to pay the loan out.
