Do I need prior construction experience?

No experience required. I work with first-time builders and seasoned developers alike, with direct access to the decision makers. A licensed GC on the project strengthens the deal.

Is land acquisition included?

Yes. The loan can cover both the land acquisition and the construction costs, with funds released through milestone-based draws.

How do construction draws work?

Your construction budget is held in reserve and released in stages as work is completed and inspected — typically foundation, framing, mechanicals, and finishes. Fast inspections keep the project moving.

What happens when the build is finished?

At certificate of occupancy you exit the construction loan by selling the property or refinancing into permanent financing — often a DSCR rental loan if you plan to hold it.

Do you fund small commercial construction?

Yes. In addition to ground-up residential and spec builds, I fund small commercial and mixed-use construction projects. Send me the details and I will structure it.

Construction Loans For Delaware Investors

Financing for new construction projects from land acquisition through completion. Land and construction in one loan with draws released as you hit milestones. First build or seasoned developer — both welcome.

A ground-up construction loan finances a build from raw or infill land through certificate of occupancy. It covers both the land acquisition and the vertical construction in a single loan, with funds released in draws as you hit defined milestones — foundation, framing, mechanicals, finishes.

As a direct lender working across Delaware, I know the local markets — from Dover, Middletown, Newark and beyond — and I underwrite on the deal, not red tape. If your construction numbers work, you get a same-day answer and funding fast enough to compete.
