Issues:

Many development deals fail not because of a lack of funding, but because of a lack of preparation on the borrower/developer.  Lenders look for experienced principals, developers, builders, contractors as it relates to the proposed project.  Project costs should not exceed project as stabilized, and should reflect entrepreneurial profit of 1-3 percent.

 

General Requirements:

Zoning and Permit approvals

Bios on all parties involved: principals, developer, builder, contractor, etc.

Detailed project plan presenting each phase of construction and the costs associated with each phase.

A representation of the operating performance of the property, as stabilized (at end of ramp up period based on market-occupancy, rental rates, and operating expenses).

A profit margin of 1-3 percent is preferred.
