Borrower Profile:
Borrowers must be able to show they have the experience or are prepared to hire the experience necessary to insure the construction is done in a profession and timely manner. Borrowers’ must be able to show that they can cover the payments.

Added Flexibility:
Borrowers can maintain their existing low rate bank first mortgage on the property or in the case of a new purchase, obtain a low rate open bank first mortgage to complete the purchase. Our private funding will advance in 2nd mortgage position to complete the project. Using this strategy, the borrower will usually save through a blended rate, rather than having to use private funds for the entire purchase / project they can take advanced of the lower rate existing bank first mortgage and only pay a higher rate on the actual funds used for construction and only as needed. Also, in cases where the borrower can retain the existing bank first mortgage they are not paying fees all over again on this portion of the funding. Fees apply only to the amount borrowered.
Here is an example to illustrate the potential savings;
$600,000 existing first mortgage with bank and $600,000 needed for construction
- First Mortgage $600,000 (Bank Mortgage rate 3.25%)
- LDCC's Private Lender 2nd Mortgage Construction Financing Facility: $600,000 (Private Lender Rate for 2nd mortgage: 9%
- Formula assuming full term:
- ($600,000 X 3.25%) +($600,000 X 9%) = 6.125%
- 1,200,000
- o Blended Rate : 6.125% , Market rate for private first mortgage on construction = 8%
o Potential Saving on a 1 year term: 1.875% less interest or $22,500.
o Actual savings may vary based on timing of funds draw and loan pay out
You can see the benefit of a blended rate in reducing the interest costs and yet through LDCC's Construction Financing Program, we provide through our Private Lenders easy and flexible financing for the project without being confined to the very ridged conventional terms and structure associated with Bank construction funding. Many Banks insist the lot be paid for in full without any existing mortgage. They also normally insist on advancing on a “work in place bases” which means you have to front the costs from your own pocket and then recover them at some point down the road after the work has been done. Difficult way to proceed to say the least.
Our Private Lender funding terms only charge interest on funds drawn and not on the entire facility amount from day one. You only pay interest on the money you’re using. In addition, our Private Lenders understand that construction schedules vary from project to project and are willing to work with our borrower’s to tailor the draw schedule for their specific project. When completed, the borrower can consolidate the combined financing into one new bank mortgage. Our Construction Financing Program experts will be happy to review your entire project to explorer how we can minimize costs and maximize savings.
