What lenders have already approved in Denton County
The published file shows 42 healthcare approvals in Denton County, $17,856,800 in total, and that history is what an appraiser and a credit committee reach for
| Line | Amount | Reading and source |
|---|---|---|
| Approvals on record | 42 | Fiscal year published in the SBA file [5] |
| Total approved capital | $17,856,800 | Sum of approvals to healthcare borrowers [5] |
| Mean deal size | $425,162 | Dollars divided by approvals [5] |
| Lenders sited in the county | 400 | Credit intermediation establishments, NAICS 522 [6] |
The consequence of these numbers
A file from here opens on 40.5 providers per 10,000 residents, and everything about volume follows from it. 42 approvals worth $17,856,800 in Denton County means the size you are asking for has a local precedent to point at. With $111,090 as the median household income, the payer mix in a projection has to match what The Colony households actually spend.
Programs the The Colony mix reaches for
- Practice acquisition
- Startup and de novo
- Working capital term loan
- Equipment financing and leasing
- Expansion, relocation, and build-out
Built from what is enumerated here rather than from a national list, so a field with no presence in The Colony does not appear. Availability is still a Texas question.

What owners in The Colony ask
01How many providers practice in The Colony, and in what?
Across 23 fields, The Colony carries 186 enumerated clinicians, 40.5 per 10,000 of the 45,897 people living here. The concentration is in physical, occupational, and speech therapy, 35 of the total, then chiropractic at 25. Count practices from that only with care.
02What does Denton County's shortage designation change?
Designated for primary care, dental, mental health, Denton County qualifies its clinicians for federal repayment support. On a file that turns on adding staff, that is the difference between a hiring assumption and a hiring plan.
03What does SBA lending look like around The Colony?
Healthcare borrowers in Denton County took 42 approvals worth $17,856,800 in the published fiscal year, averaging $425,162. That is the comparable set an appraiser near The Colony reaches for first.
04Which fields carry the volume in The Colony?
Physical, occupational, and speech therapy at 35 providers and chiropractic at 25 lead the 23 fields enumerated here. A funder reads that mix as the local competition set and the local hiring pool at once, before it reads a single line of your own numbers.
05Is The Colony underwritten as part of Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX?
Partly. Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX is 22 miles out, so rent and equipment comparables travel in from there while patients still come from the 45,897 residents around The Colony. Cost side metro, revenue side local.
06What does a $111,090 median income mean for case acceptance?
Median household income in The Colony runs $111,090. On elective and cash-pay work that is the number a funder converts into case acceptance, and it sets how much of a treatment plan a projection can assume gets started rather than deferred.
