These figures are computed from the SBA's public 7(a) and 504 funded-loan records for Landscaping Services (NAICS 56173). They cover funded loans, not applications, so a lender's activity here is a track-record signal — not a guarantee you will be approved. Among the 7(a) loans, the charge-off rate is 3.5% — a relative track-record signal, not a lifetime default rate (504 charge-offs are not reported in the SBA data); see our methodology. Estimate a payment with the SBA loan calculator, or check the basics with the eligibility checker.

Top SBA lenders in Administrative and Support, the sector that includes landscaping businesses

Ranked by SBA loans funded across Administrative and Support (NAICS 56), the full sector that contains Landscaping Services (NAICS 56173). The sector is broader than landscaping businesses alone, and sector level is the granularity our per-lender track-record data supports, so every figure below, including the 7(a) charge-off rate, is sector-wide, not specific to landscaping businesses. Charge-off is reported on 7(a) loans, never on 504 loans, so a lender without a reliable 7(a) sample in the sector shows “not reported,” never 0%. A lender active in your situation is a good place to start; talk to a few before you apply.
