New construction loans

Ground-up construction loans, paid out as you build.

We underwrite the full project cost up front and release money at each milestone, so you only pay interest on what you've drawn. 85% of cost as standard, up to 90% for builders with 20 or more completed builds.

How draws work

Money released at each milestone.

Funds go out in stages as the project hits milestones, which keeps your carrying costs down.

  1. 1

    Land and plans

    You secure the lot and finalize plans. We underwrite the full project cost up front, so you know the whole budget is covered.
  2. 2

    Construction draws

    Money is released as you hit milestones (foundation, framing, mechanicals, completion), each confirmed by an inspection.
  3. 3

    Certificate of occupancy

    The build is done and the CO is issued. Sell the property or refinance into a 30-year DSCR rental loan to pay this loan off.

How do construction draws work?+
A draw is a payment released when a construction milestone is complete and verified. We schedule inspections at key stages (foundation, framing, rough-in, drywall and final completion). Once a milestone is confirmed, the money is released to your account.
Do I need prior construction experience?+
Experienced builders are preferred, but a first-time builder with a qualified general contractor may still qualify. We look at the strength of your build team, the plans and the overall numbers of the deal.
What is the maximum loan size for a ground-up project?+
There is no hard cap. Projects over $5M are reviewed case by case, with rates and terms set for the project. Contact us directly to talk through a large build.
Can I refinance into a DSCR loan after construction is complete?+
Yes. Many borrowers build with us, then refinance into our 30-year DSCR rental loan once the property is rented and stable. Repeat clients get the same team on both loans, which keeps the handoff simple.
What states do you lend in for new construction?+
We lend in 45 states. A few states are excluded because of licensing rules. Ask a loan officer to confirm your state before you apply.
How much of my project cost can you finance?+
Most ground-up borrowers finance up to 85% of full cost: the purchase price, any money already spent, and the remaining construction budget. Builders with 20 or more completed ground-up builds reach 90%. On top of either figure, a further 5% of cost is available to finance the interest reserve, so an experienced builder can reach 95% of cost all-in with the reserve financed. Leverage is also limited by after-repair loan-to-value, and whichever cap is lower governs the deal. Final terms come from a term sheet, not from this page.
