Construction Loan Services | Trinity Online

Construction lending is widely known as challenging, intricate and risky. While doing the deal is one thing, managing the process after the underwriting, approval, and issuance of the commitment letter is quite another. Lenders must manage so many pieces of a complicated operation, and frankly, the process can be tedious, time consuming and all out frustrating.

Working with a construction loan management service provider can greatly simplify your day-to-day procedures, ease your burdens, and potentially reduce overall expenses so when you’re searching for construction loan administration services, what are the critical components that are sure to predict your success? Two key variables make all the difference.

1) Experience

Before the financial crash occurred over 10 plus years ago, subject matter expertise on construction lending was plentiful and widespread. In the aftermath of the housing boom and eventual collapse, proven construction lending experience with detailed problem-solving abilities is a much more difficult skillset to find.

Construction lending presents countless known and unknown pitfalls for lenders, especially as collateral is built over time and another party (the builder) is involved. The new home environment is volatile, and the impact of underestimating various types of risks can be significant and devastating. Whether it’s vetting contractors to ensure a project doesn’t go sideways, ensuring budgets are reviewed, authenticated and validated, managing the draw inspection process, processing lien waivers, or keeping track of the endless paper trail for each report, the importance of possessing the proven experience to manage the construction loans cannot be overstated. Indeed, a higher, proven level of expertise is not just desired – it’s required.   

2) Trust

Finding an experienced partner that you can trust is also integral in the process. Ultimately, lenders need a trusted provider that will mitigate risk, disperse and track funds appropriately, meet stringent data security and insurance standards, provide supporting services, and speed the process while making sure all the ‘i’s’ are dotted and the ‘t’s’ are crossed. It’s about having the lender’s back and taking care of business.
