Investor & Business-Purpose
Ground-Up Construction
Overview
Ground-up construction financing supports new-build projects from site acquisition (or existing ownership) through vertical construction, with funds released in draws as construction milestones are completed and inspected.
Documentation paths
- Construction budget, plans, and permits
- Builder/contractor qualifications
- Land ownership or acquisition documentation
Common use cases
- New-construction rental or resale project
- Builder or developer financing a business-purpose project
Things to consider
- Draw inspections and permitting timelines directly affect project cash flow and should be planned for in advance.
