What To Expect

Construction financing involves more than a standard mortgage, from draw schedules and inspections to permits, municipal approvals, and lender requirements. I explain each option clearly and guide you through every step, so your project stays on track and within budget from planning to completion.

Step 1: Review Your Project

Reach out early, ideally before
you finalize plans, sign a build contract, or purchase land. We’ll review your building plans, budget or builder’s quote, land details, timeline, and financial documents so we know exactly what lenders will look for. If you don’t have everything yet, I’ll help you understand what’s needed and in what order.

Step 2: Compare Options
& Get Approved

I’ll bring you financing options suited to your project and walk you through the rates, terms, and draw structure of each. Once you’ve chosen the right fit, I’ll help you submit your application and work through any lender conditions to secure your approval.

Step 3: Close and Begin
Your Draws

Once your financing closes, funds are released in stages, called draws, as construction milestones are completed. Before each draw, the lender typically confirms progress through an inspection or appraisal. I’ll stay involved throughout, so your financing keeps pace with your build until final completion.
