New build financing

Ground-Up Construction Loans

Flexible construction capital, structured around the builder's strategy.

Ground-up loans fund vertical construction for builders and investors who are creating the asset, not renovating one. The structure follows the budget, the draw schedule, and the exit — sale or refinance into a longer note once the building is done.

A typical fit is up to 85% of cost and 100% of construction, 12 to 24 months, interest-only, first lien only, with loans up to $5 million. Plans, a builder, and a realistic budget matter more than a polished personal financial statement.

Questions on this program

During construction the payment is interest-only. Principal is due at the end of the term, usually from a sale or a refinance onto a DSCR or commercial note.
