The lending record behind Apple Valley
64 healthcare approvals averaging $599,730 set the deal shape lenders in San Bernardino County have already underwritten
| What it measures | Value | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| SBA healthcare approvals | 64 | One published fiscal year, healthcare borrowers only [5] |
| Approved dollars | $38,382,700 | Approved, not disbursed, and not net of withdrawals [5] |
| Average approval | $599,730 | A mean, so one large approval moves it [5] |
| Lending establishments in the county | 673 | Credit intermediation offices sited in the county [6] |
What the two tables above change about a file
Underwriting starts with 61.6 providers per 10,000 residents, because that ratio caps how fast a chair or a room fills. Because San Bernardino County already carries $38,382,700 across 64 healthcare approvals, a request near that average moves faster than one well above it. A $65,926 median household income here sets the ceiling on what an elective or cash-pay line can be expected to carry.
Where a file from this town usually lands
- Practice acquisition
- Expansion, relocation, and build-out
- Startup and de novo
- Working capital term loan
- Equipment financing and leasing
The order comes from Apple Valley's own provider mix, which physical, occupational, and speech therapy dominates at 17 percent. What a partner can actually place in California is a separate question.
