Austin, TX
Business Community Lenders of Texas' (BCL of Texas) mission is to provide economic and community development opportunities across our dynamic state of Texas. We value your business and look forward to new opportunities. At BCL, we embrace challenges and change.
BCL of Texas (formally CEN-TEX CDC) was formed in 1990 at the invitation of the SBA San Antonio District office to make commercial real estate loans for established central Texas businesses. Our first loan was to Juan Portillo, who purchased an office building for his business, Tramex Travel. Sixteen years later Tramex Travel continues to grow. To meet customer requests, BCL has expanded its products and services. BCL became a statewide organization in 2004 and filed our dba (doing business as) Business & Community Lenders of Texas.
BCL is a non-profit economic and community development lender.
All of our loans must meet a public purpose test.
