SBA, in its discretion, consulting with the Participating Lender, may require other appropriate individuals to guarantee the loan as well, except SBA will not require personal guarantees from those owning less than 5% ownership.
(b) Appraisals. SBA may require professional appraisals of the applicant's and principals' assets, a survey, or a feasibility study.
(c) Hazard Insurance. SBA requires hazard insurance on all collateral.
(d) Taxes. The applicant may not use any of the proceeds to pay past-due Federal and state payroll taxes.
