New Construction
multifamily Loan
Some of the most important factors that we are looking at are the following:
- New construction or ground-up experience (where the past title was held by the borrower on previous projects)
- Meeting minimum credit score requirements
- Clear background report
- Solid project with acceptable margins
Our Construction Loans can be used for land acquisition, tear down, or new construction.
If used for land acquisition, plans for the single-family home 1-4 unit that is going to be constructed are needed upon submission.
These programs are used for the acquisition of a lot with plans to build new construction only. Ground-up construction must immediately follow the acquisition of the land.

New Construction Loans Sacramento FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
A new construction loan is a short-term financing option specifically designed for funding the construction of a new property with or without the lot acquisition. Unlike traditional financing from banks, our new construction loans utilize private or hard money, which means quicker approval times, less stringent credit requirements, and greater flexibility in terms.
Our approval process for new construction loans is streamlined and efficient. We focus on the property’s completed value and the borrower’s ability to execute the construction project. While credit history is considered, it’s not the primary factor. Our team assesses the project’s feasibility and the borrower’s experience in construction to make an informed decision.
Our new construction loans typically offer flexible terms ranging from 12 to 18 months. Interest rates are competitive, and we work closely with borrowers to tailor repayment schedules that align with the project’s timeline and the borrower’s financial situation. We aim to provide terms that maximize your project’s success.
We fund a range of new construction projects. Whether you’re building a single-family home, a multi-unit development, or a subdivision, our new construction loans can be customized to suit your specific project needs.
Our goal is to expedite the funding process to help you obtain construction financing promptly. Once your application is submitted and the project’s feasibility is assessed, funding decisions can often be made within days, not weeks. This enables you to start your new construction project without unnecessary delays.
