Milwaukee County approvals, dollars, and lending establishments
The published file shows 18 healthcare approvals in Milwaukee County, $12,388,900 in total, and that history is what an appraiser and a credit committee reach for
| Line | Amount | Reading and source |
|---|---|---|
| Approvals on record | 18 | Counted for the fiscal year the SBA publishes [5] |
| Total approved capital | $12,388,900 | Everything approved to healthcare borrowers, added up [5] |
| Mean deal size | $688,272 | The dollar column over the approval column [5] |
| Lenders sited in the county | 443 | Places that write credit locally, NAICS 522 [6] |
What the two tables above change about a file
Underwriting starts with 71.0 providers per 10,000 residents, because that ratio caps how fast a chair or a room fills. Because Milwaukee County already carries $12,388,900 across 18 healthcare approvals, a request near that average moves faster than one well above it. With $89,135 as the median household income, the payer mix in a projection has to match what Shorewood households actually spend.
Where a file from this town usually lands
- Practice acquisition
- Startup and de novo
- Working capital term loan
- Equipment financing and leasing
- Expansion, relocation, and build-out
Weighted by how often each of the 14 local fields reaches for a program, not by what is easiest to refer. Wisconsin rules and the partner decide availability.
