The long-awaited new U.S. Small Business Administration servicing and liquidation Standard Operating Procedural manual has been released and will take effect March 1, 2013.

This is the first major revision to the SOP since 1999. SBA is doing away with separate servicing and liquidation manuals, opting to combine them into one.

Join national SBA policy expert and professional Coleman webinar instructor, Lisa Lerner , as she guides you through the many changes taking effect that day.

Here is a peak of some of the changes:

Changes Related to SBA 7(a) Loan Servicing
Seasoned Loan Definition: The definition of a “seasoned loan” is the mirror opposite of the definition pertaining to when there has been an “early default” on a loan, and is now more closely aligned to the industry definition of a seasoned loan as one that that has paid as agreed for one year.
Environmental Risk Management: SBA’s environmental risk management guidelines have been expanded to address issues pertaining to loans in regular servicing status.
Loan Action Justification and Documentation: All servicing decisions must be justified and documented in a loan action record that is independent of any document prepared by a senior lienholder or any other person with a conflict of interest.
Subordination in Conjunction with SBA Loan Assumption: When an SBA loan is assumed, it may be subordinated to the acquisition loan up to the documented amount of any funds used to maintain or increase the value of the collateral.

Changes Related to SBA 7(a) Liquidation Policy and Procedures
Financial Hardship: To help ensure that decisions pertaining to financial hardship are uniform, based on objective criteria, and applied consistently, the SOP includes a definition of the term “financial hardship” that utilizes the Collection Financial Standards published by the Internal Revenue Service.
Protective Bids: SBA policy with regard to when a protective bid should and should not be entered at a senior lienholder’s foreclosure sale has been modified to include a “prudent lender” exception based on circumstances that are not reflected in the appraisal but are documented in the loan file.
Release of Redemption Rights: The redemption rights associated with an SBA loan may only be released after confirmation of the foreclosure sale in exchange for cash in an amount approximately equal to 50% of the property’s recoverable value.
When Collateral Must be Liquidated: The recoverable value dollar threshold for when collateral must be liquidated (and cannot be abandoned) has been raised from $2,500 to $5,000 for personal property and $5,000 to $10,000 for real property.
Compromise: The compromise chapter includes guidelines for compromises involving going concerns; adds SBA program integrity as a factor that must be considered when determining whether a compromise offer is sufficient; and recommends the use of a mutual release when the compromise amount is paid in full.
Recoverable Expenses: Lenders may only submit requests for approval or reimbursement of recoverable expenses when the lender submits its loan guaranty purchase request, when the recoverable expenses total $5,000 or more per loan, or when the lender submits its wrap-up report.
Repair Estimate: Lenders are encouraged to acknowledge errors and to include a repair estimate in their purchase package in order to expedite the repair and guaranty purchase process.
Use of Debarred or Suspended Loan Agent: The SOP specifically states that a full denial of liability is almost always justified if the lender placed SBA at risk by making a loan based on a loan package prepared by an agent who was suspended or debarred by SBA or another federal agency, unless the lender provides credible evidence that the business failed for totally unrelated reasons.

Why a Webinar?

It’s very cost effective. No airfare, no hotels. Just cram as many people as you wish into your conference room and turn on the computer. You have two options to listen to the program–phone, or through your computer speakers. You are only charged for the connection.

You can choose to have any many connections nationwide as you wish when you purchase unlimited access for only $100.

A great benefit of the program is that you have the ability to ask questions directly of the panelists. Or, you may simply email Coleman during the program and he will air your question. All of our webinars are recorded. Buyers of the unlimited site license option will receive a DVD recording of the event to share with anyone you wish. A transcript of the program is also provided to purchasers of the unlimited site license.

How it Works

We use Go-to-Webinar as our platform. You will receive a link that will direct you to an Internet site to view the presentation. Nothing will be downloaded to your computer. If you would like to test this process to make sure you will be able to access the link through your system’s firewall, just send an email to joseph@colemanreport.com, and he will walk you through it.
