This site is not America First
sbaexpress.loans is not America First, and America First did not provide, review or pay for this page. Janover Capital LLC runs this site. Every figure on this page comes from SBA's public 7(a) loan file, not from America First.
These are the 171 SBA 7(a) loans America First made in Arizona approved October 2019 to June 2026. Each figure is set against all of its loans in the U.S. over the same period. State is where the business is, not where the lender is based. The file lists loans SBA approved, so it shows what the lender has done and not what it will do for you. Every state page for this lender uses this same period, so the pages can be compared with each other.
