The Bank of Houston
At a Glance
The smallest bank this round and the one whose SBA page puts the buyer first; what it publishes is people and a claim of national reach, and nothing in figures.
- Pricing
- Custom Pricing, Loan products; terms by term sheet. No size, rate or fee is published for any SBA loan; the desk says it works exclusively with SBA programs and decides locally (per thebankofhouston.com, September 2026).
- Best For
- A buyer anywhere in the country whose deal a two-office Missouri desk that says national can reach by email, with acquisitions the first word on its page
- Roadmap Stages
- 5. Diligence & Close the Deal
Pros and Cons

- Calls its SBA desk a Preferred Lender with national lending capabilities and its team one that works exclusively with SBA programs
- Names its SBA lending manager, chief lending officer and a commercial lender with cell phones and email
Cons
- Publishes no size, rate or fee
- Two Missouri offices and a national claim on the SBA page beside a conventional page written for local business
- The loan file's address for the bank does not resolve; its site is at another name
- Names no search fund, searcher or acquisition entrepreneur
