What are usda b&i / rural loans?
USDA Business & Industry (B&I) loans are the rural counterpart to SBA, guaranteed by the USDA rather than SBA, with larger maximums and longer terms. Because they're less widely known, brokers who specialise face less competition per deal.
Eligibility hinges on location (population under 50,000) rather than industry, so almost any legal business type qualifies.
