How it works

SBA loans offer low down payments and long amortizations for owner-occupied property and business acquisition. USA Mortgage arranges and places SBA financing through our network of partner lenders; we are not ourselves an SBA lender. We shop your file across that network so you get the strongest approval.

Local FAQ

SBA Financing in Kansas City, answered.

Will my Kansas City building be taxed as commercial or residential once I own it?
Commercial, at 32 percent of value, not the 19 percent rate that applies to rental housing. Missouri puts owner-occupied commercial buildings and other non-residential real estate in subclass 3, assessed at 32 percent, while residential rental property sits in subclass 1 at 19 percent with no unit-count cutoff. A Jackson County commercial parcel also carries the county's RSMo 139.600 commercial surcharge, which residential subclass 1 property does not pay. Model an SBA-financed Kansas City building's carrying cost at the commercial rate plus that surcharge, not at a residential figure.
Can I trust the assessed value listed on a Kansas City building I'm buying with SBA financing?
Verify it at underwriting rather than trusting the seller's trailing tax bill. Jackson County's 2023 reassessment was found noncompliant by the Missouri State Tax Commission, the Missouri Court of Appeals Western District sided with the Commission in December 2025 and returned the enforcement question to the trial court, and a June 2026 STC order that set corrected 2023 values and held that the county's fifteen percent correction is a ceiling, not a floor, so an owner can still appeal a value down. A parcel's current assessed value could reflect the original 2023 figure, a corrected one, or a pending credit. Confirm the parcel's status with the county before you set your SBA project's operating budget.
Does Kansas City's earnings tax apply to a business that owns its own building there?
Yes, and buying instead of leasing does not change it. Kansas City charges a 1 percent earnings tax on business net profits for a business operating inside the city limits. Voters renewed it on April 7, 2026, with more than 75 percent in favor, and the next renewal vote is not until 2031. A business in a Jackson County suburb outside the city line, such as Lee's Summit or Blue Springs, does not carry it. Where your SBA-financed building sits relative to that line is worth checking before you buy.
How much of a Kansas City building does my business have to occupy for SBA financing?
At least 51 percent, for an existing building. That is the federal occupancy floor under 13 CFR 120.131 and it applies the same in Kansas City as anywhere else. For new construction the floor rises to 60 percent occupied at closing, with no more than 20 percent permanently leased to others and a three-year to ten-year absorption plan required for the remainder. A purely leased-out Kansas City investment property does not qualify; that belongs on one of our investor programs instead.
What's the largest SBA 504 loan available for a Kansas City building?
$5 million standard, $5.5 million only if you qualify as a small manufacturer or a qualifying energy project. Under 13 CFR 120.931, the $5.5 million ceiling is limited to NAICS 31-33 manufacturers and qualifying energy projects; every other Kansas City owner-occupant tops out at $5 million on the 504 piece of the structure. A larger purchase typically pairs 504 with a conventional or bridge structure for the balance.
How much cash do I need for an SBA 504 purchase of a Kansas City building?
10 percent of the project as the standard borrower contribution, more if your business is young or the building is purpose-built. Under 13 CFR 120.910, the contribution rises to 15 percent if your business has operated less than two years or the building is single-purpose, and to 20 percent if both apply. Budget for the higher tier on a purpose-built Kansas City property bought by a newer operating company.

About the local figures on this page

Local rules move. Every tax rate, fee, ordinance and market figure here comes from a primary source and carries the date we read it, and we correct them as the rules change. Where a number is mid-change or we could not verify it, we say so rather than guess. Before you commit a budget, confirm anything that drives it with the city or county, and talk to your attorney or CPA on questions of law or tax.

Published by USA Mortgage Funding, LLC, NMLS #152588. Researched from primary sources by our team, drafted with AI assistance, and every figure checked against its source before publishing. Where an answer rests on a public record, that record is linked under it. Figures read on 2026-09-05.
