Letters of Explanation Kit

Lenders ask for a written explanation of late payments in the last 12 months, collections, liens, gaps in income or a bad year. A good letter is short, factual and shows what has changed. This kit gives you templates and examples for the situations lenders ask about most. It is credit education, not a credit repair service.

What’s included

  • Six one-page Word letters: late payments; collection, charge-off, bankruptcy or foreclosure; tax matters; revenue decline; employment or business gaps; judgments, liens and lawsuits
  • A completed example of each letter
  • Examples of strong and weak explanations
  • How to get your credit reports and IRS transcripts first
  • The SBA eligibility limits a letter cannot fix

Every AceTheSBA product comes with

  • Step-by-step instructions for every section
  • A completed example for a fictional business
  • References to the SBA rule each part applies
  • Editable Word, Excel or PowerPoint files
  • A version showing the SBA rules it follows (SOP 50 10 8.1)
  • Documents for your lender kept free of AceTheSBA branding
