About Live Oak Bank

Live Oak Bank is a U.S. bank with a business lending offering that includes SBA loans, conventional loans and Live Oak Express. Its lending model includes teams focused on specific industries, such as healthcare, professional services, franchises, automotive care and veterinary businesses.

Financing overview

The bank’s broader website also describes USDA lending among its available options. A broker researching Live Oak should start with the client’s industry, transaction purpose and preferred financing structure. Program availability and the final terms depend on the bank’s review of the proposed transaction.
