Magnuson Hotels today announced its certification to the US Franchise Registry, the national listing of brands approved by the US Small Business Administration (SBA).Hotel projects that utilize SBA approved brands receive a streamlined process and faster financing approvals, cutting months off the typical loan process. As many local and regional lenders are nervous to make loans in an unstable economy and often unfamiliar with national hotel brand franchising contracts, the SBA franchise certification helps secure loan guarantees with the SBA.

Under this plan, SBA guarantees 75% - 85% of the loan, which lowers risk to banks, increasing willingness to provide hotel loans based upon registered brands.
