Brickline helps Richmond real estate investors finance eligible ground-up residential investment projects using New Construction Loans designed for build timelines and project budgets.
Investors may use this financing for land acquisition and construction, or to fund the construction phase on owned land, with a clear plan for sale or refinance upon completion.
Richmond Financing
New Construction Loans are specifically structured for the unique demands of building a residential investment property from the ground up. This financing addresses the capital needs throughout the construction process.
For investors, the right construction financing depends on the land, the detailed construction plan, the project budget, and the intended exit strategy, whether it’s a sale or a long-term refinance.
Brickline reviews the financing request based on the property, the investor’s experience, the project’s viability, and program guidelines to support qualified new construction deals in Richmond.

Richmond Projects Markets
New construction financing is driven by the specifics of the project itself: the land, the detailed construction plan, the budget, and the build timeline. These factors are often more critical than the city label alone.
A well-defined construction plan, a realistic budget, and a clear understanding of the project’s timeline are essential for securing new construction financing. Brickline evaluates these elements to ensure project viability.

Learn how New Construction Loans work, where they may fit, what Brickline reviews, and what investors should consider before moving forward with a build project.
New Construction Loans are business-purpose financing designed for real estate investors to fund the ground-up construction of residential investment properties in Richmond. This includes both land acquisition and the build itself, or just the construction phase on investor-owned land.
These loans are typically for eligible ground-up residential investment projects, such as single-family homes, duplexes, or small multi-family properties intended for sale or rent upon completion. The project must have a clear construction plan and budget.
New Construction Loans typically involve a draw schedule, where funds are disbursed in stages as construction milestones are met. This ensures that capital is released as work progresses and is verified by inspections.
Brickline evaluates the overall project viability, including the land, the detailed construction plan, the project budget, the investor’s experience, and the intended exit strategy (sale or refinance). A strong, well-documented plan is key.
Yes, New Construction Loans can often be structured to include the acquisition of eligible land as part of the overall financing package, provided it aligns with the complete ground-up construction project.
The timeline for New Construction Loans is closely tied to the project’s build schedule. The loan term is designed to cover the construction period, with an understanding of the time needed to complete the project and execute the exit strategy.
New Construction Loans are generally short-term. Repayment typically occurs through the sale of the completed property or by refinancing into a longer-term loan, such as a DSCR rental loan, once the property is stabilized and ready for rent.
