For EIDL loans less than $200,000, dissolve your business. EIDLs for less than $200,000 are generally not personally guaranteed, which means the business owner is not personally liable for the debt as long as the business is structured as an LLC or corporation.
All loans insured by the SBA require a personal guarantee from every owner with a 20 percent or greater equity stake in the business.

What are the risks of owner financing for buyers? Buyers may face higher interest rates, balloon payments, limited legal protections, potential title issues, and a lack of consumer protections compared to traditional mortgages. It's essential to fully understand these risks before proceeding.
If a buyer defaults, your options fall into two general categories: Mutual Agreement Options: 1) contractual solutions; 2) negotiation; 3) mediation. Dispute Resolution Options: 4) arbitration; 5) small claims court, and 6) litigation in the superior courts.
There is no provision for forgiveness on these loans, nor should anyone expect that there will be. The EIDL is a decades-old program, and if they forgive loans for this particular disaster, then borrowers for every other EIDL program are going to expect forgiveness on their loans as well. It's not happening.
