Acquisition - Refinance Land Loan - Horizontal Construction Loan for Commercial & Residential Property Nationwide

 

Our land acquisition and development program is straight forward.  Please read the entire page to completely understand our guidelines.  This program is not for those looking to cash out of raw, un-entitled land without the plans for improvement.  Please click here for details on our land cash out or rate and term program.  

We are looking for educated, quality borrowers and corporate institutions that are usually required to sign personally on each transaction.  Our borrowers usually don't meet the bank guidelines in one way or another.  If the situation fits our loan parameters and it makes sense, then it is very likely we will offer you a loan.

 We look for real cash and or equity into the deal.  We will give you a quick and common sense answer.
 

If you need money for the following:

  Purchase money to acquire land for residential subdivisions or commercial pads
  Refinance current bridge note
  Install streets, curbs, gutters, utilities, and excavation work - must have approvals
  Partner buyouts
