Lending programs / Transaction review

Construction & Development

A transaction review for ground-up construction and development projects with a documented budget, approvals, and completion strategy.

Program overview

Review the project from the ground up.

A construction request must connect the site, permitted scope, total project budget, sponsor capacity, and proposed exit. We review approvals, the construction team, contingencies, and completion assumptions before considering a financing structure.

Common financing scenarios

  • Ground-up investment-property construction
  • A documented development project and site plan
  • An approved project with a supportable completion and repayment strategy
