The CRF Difference
CRF is a nationwide Small Business Administration (SBA) 7(a) preferred lender. We work with partners across the United States to provide local small business owners with the financing that they need to grow and create jobs. We look at more than just numbers and often can say “yes” even when financial institutions and other lenders have declined.
Since becoming a 7(a) lender in 2011, CRF has closed more than $240 million in SBA 7(a) financing, helping small businesses create or retain nearly 8,000 jobs across the country.
