Why Herndon?
We chose Herndon, Virginia as the site of the workshop for several reasons.
First, cost. We got a great rate on the hotel — $149.
Next, you won’t need a rental car. There is a continuous shuttle between the hotel and Dulles airport.
Finally, and here’s an added bonus, we’ve scheduled this at Herndon so you may visit SBA’s National Guaranty Purchase Center.
It’s only a half mile from the hotel.
What happens at National Guaranty Purchase Center?
The National Guaranty Purchase Center located in Herndon, Virginia , was created to centralize SBA’s 7(a) loan guaranty purchase function into a single national location.(The Fresno, California, and Little Rock, Arkansas, Commercial Loan Service Centers will continue to assist lenders on accounts that are not in a liquidation status. The Fresno and Little Rock centers also oversee SBAExpress liquidations and guaranty purchases).
This centralization provides increased standardization of the purchase process and a more reliable response time for lenders. The ultimate goal of the Center is to provide consistent, professional and timely service to SBA’s valued lending partners.
Optional Tour: Visit the National Guaranty Purchase Center
This is not an SBA sanctioned event.
However, we have left time in the morning so that you will be able to visit the National Guaranty Purchase Center on your own.
