Compare an SBA loan offers from 50 lenders for Ontario businesses — Toronto, Ottawa, and Mississauga and beyond. One application, firm offers in about 24 hours, no effect on your credit.
For Ontario businesses, sba loans through EQ Funding means one application instead of a stack of bank visits — your file goes to 50 lenders that compete to fund it, with firm offers in about 24 hours and no effect on your credit to compare.
You apply once and the lenders most likely to approve a business like yours bid for the deal. You compare an SBA loan side by side and take the best rate and terms, rather than whatever the first banker happened to offer.
Ontario is the largest business economy in Canada, anchored by Toronto in finance and technology, Ottawa in government and tech, and a deep advanced-manufacturing base across the Greater Toronto Area and southwestern Ontario.
That scale supports an active lender market across term loans, lines of credit, equipment, and commercial real estate financing. EQ Funding serves Ontario businesses entirely online and puts 50 lenders in competition with one application.
Reach Ontario’s most active business lenders in a single form instead of applying to each one.

SBA 7(a) is the most flexible — up to $5M for working capital, equipment, real estate, or business acquisition. SBA 504 is specifically for major fixed assets (commercial real estate, heavy equipment) with longer amortizations and below-market rates.
Realistic timeline is 30–90 days end-to-end including SBA underwriting. The trade-off is the lowest rate available in commercial lending and 10–25 year amortizations that no other loan product can match.
SBA 7(a) lenders typically require 680+ FICO, though some accept 640+ with strong revenue. SBA 504 has similar requirements. Personal financial statements are reviewed alongside business performance.
Up to $5M for SBA 7(a). SBA 504 also caps at $5.5M for most projects. Real estate and equipment-heavy projects fit best at the higher end; working-capital uses tend to be $50K–$500K.
SBA loans over $50K typically require collateral. Approved SBA lenders take what's "reasonably available" — business assets, real estate, and personal guarantees. They won't decline solely for lack of collateral if the business is otherwise strong.
