| − | Data is pretty heavily protected for 7a and 504 loans. Comprehensive data is not accessible to public; only accessible to SBA employees. Data is obtained by contact under service by Dun & Bradstreet. See this book, page 16 [https://books.google.com/books?id=RYzbIVP39RoC&pg=PA15&lpg=PA15&dq=comprehensive+sba+loan+data+504&source=bl&ots=_MmL5oLWQY&sig=-0geLuDHvCRTLXwRQDSSIFnnY0E&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjw_ffdjsPJAhWPrIMKHThGBBcQ6AEINzAD#v=onepage&q=comprehensive%20sba%20loan%20data%20504&f=false| SBA book on google books]

| − | *note: each office has its own unique way of showing lender data--some use PDFs, some use excel sheets, some don't report it at all (or if they do, they make it very difficult to find(Alabama, where your loans at??)).
