Five SBA 504 Projects with SomerCor

Helander has expanded operations from a single location, to four – totaling nearly 100,000 square feet. SomerCor currently has three funded SBA 504 loans covering commercial real estate and equipment, and another two waiting to close covering additional CRE and equipment. In terms of total project size for all five loans, this amounts to over $15 million in financing.
“Working with SomerCor has been a great business partnership for Helander. The process has been very professional and responsibly executed,” said Sam Ibrahim Jr. “Our company has been able to grow in a positive way that was only possible by working with Byline Bank, the SBA, and the team at SomerCor that tied it all together.”
