Motel 6 franchise in Idaho: what the public record shows
Franchisees of Motel 6 in Idaho have taken 7 SBA loans since 1991 (average $2,937,142)— too few resolved loans in-state to publish a local failure rate (we require a resolved cohort, never extrapolate), so the brand's national rate of 4.6% is the better guide.

A broker is paid by the franchisor to place you. An independent CPA is paid by you — and the job is pressure-testing Motel 6's numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
