Ground-Up Construction Loan Requirements

Prepare the property, budget, permit, experience, and exit information needed for a construction-loan review.

Immediate answer

A ground-up construction review starts with the land, plans and permit status, detailed construction budget, completed value, development experience, requested leverage, and exit.

Before You Submit

  • Land basis and ownership
  • Plans and permits
  • Line-item construction budget
  • Completed value support
  • Comparable project experience
  • Equity and liquidity
  • Sale or refinance exit

Why Experience Changes the Structure

Current working guidelines distinguish a standard path from an experienced-developer path. Comparable completed projects can affect leverage, term, and the number of properties in the structure.
