Frequently Asked
Questions
Answers to common questions about working with Archwest Capital
What is ground up construction loan?
A ground up construction loan gives you the capital to build a new residential property from the ground up, whether you’re starting on an empty lot or a teardown site. We release funds in scheduled draws as each phase of your build is finished, keeping capital flowing at the pace your project needs.
Do I need real estate investing experience to qualify?
Ground up construction loans generally require three completed projects within the past 36 months. Licensed general contractors with a 720+ FICO may qualify with two completed projects.
What credit score do I need for a ground up construction loan?
Archwest generally requires a minimum average FICO score of 680 for loan eligibility, alongside evaluating the strength of your project plan and track record as an investor.
How long does a ground up construction loan last?
Ground up construction loan terms range from 12 to 24 months, with up to two 3-month extensions if your project needs more time. Extensions are subject to approval and applicable terms.
What types of ground up projects can be financed?
Ground up construction loans typically cover new single-family homes, condos, townhomes, 2-4 plex properties, multifamily up to 9 units, infill development, ADUs, and community builds, giving investors financing across a range of project types and scales.
