Construction Loans

Short term real estate financing secured by a mortgage on the property being financed. This loan is meant to cover the cost of land development and building construction, and is disbursed (1) as needed, (2) as each stage is completed, (3) according to a prearranged schedule, or (4) when some condition is met. Construction loans are paid off from the proceeds of permanent financing (usually for 20 to 30 years), which in turn is repaid from the cash flow generated by the completed building, and is arranged before the construction loan is disbursed.

Jamis Companies has many years of experience in the construction loan processes and can create all the documents required to facilitate your lending requirements.

Unlike a mortgage which requires one level of approval, a construction loan requires three levels of approval. These approvals are designed to ensure that your project is well-planned and to minimize risk to the lender. Because there are so many more steps involved in a construction loan, it is important to start preparing the required documents as early as possible to prevent any delays in financing.

The three levels of approval are:

Borrower Approval – this is the borrower’s ability to qualify for the loan (just like a purchase or refinancing mortgage).

Contractor Approval
– this is the approval by the lender of the contractors who will do the work. Lenders want to make sure you are using professionals who will do a quality job; the reputation and expertise of the contractors you choose will influence which lenders we chose to work with for financing.

Project Approval
– this is a review of the budget, the construction contract signed between the borrower and the General Contractor, and the blueprints. Lenders want to make sure that your building costs are appropriate for the area in which you are building, that you will have enough money in reserves to finish the project, and that the appraisal is realistic.
