First Liberty Building & Loan

Participating in a First Liberty Note is a smart decision for those looking to support local small businesses, while growing their money at a higher rate than the big banks can offer.

At First Liberty Building & Loan, we understand that small businesses are the backbone of our economy. We have over thirty years of experience in providing creative lending solutions for small businesses, using SBA loans, equipment loans, and short-term bridge loans to meet the needs of our clients. In many cases, a short-term bridge loan that can be funded quickly is of great value to our small business and investor clients, even at higher rates.

Our common-sense approach to lending, along with our ability to close quickly, allows our small business and investor clients to take advantage of value priced opportunities in the marketplace. The higher interest rates they are willing to pay to get their bridge loans funded quickly, allows us to pay higher interest rates to our loan participants. And our years-long practice of making bridge loans only to clients for whom we have already provided a pre-approval for an SBA loan or other lower rate, permanent loan, means that we know how we are going to be repaid on our bridge loan before we fund it.
