Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be a licensed builder in Michigan?

No, but you must use a licensed general contractor for the vertical build. Michigan permit and inspection compliance is handled by the GC on record.

How are construction draws handled in Michigan?

We fund on a milestone draw schedule — typically 4–6 draws from foundation through CO. Each draw is released within 24–48 hours of a passing Michigan inspection.

Can I use this loan for a spec home in a Michigan suburb?

Yes — spec builds in Michigan suburban and exurban submarkets are our sweet spot. We look at absorption rates and comparable new-construction sales to size the loan.

What happens at Certificate of Occupancy?

You can list the home for sale, or roll into our 30-year DSCR loan at CO to hold as a long-term rental. Many Michigan builders now rent one out of every three spec homes.
