Brickline helps Seattle real estate investors finance eligible ground-up residential investment projects using New Construction Loans designed for situations where the land, construction plan, and build timeline are central to the financing strategy.
Investors may use this financing for eligible land acquisition and construction, or to fund the build phase on owned land, before moving toward the planned sale or refinance exit.
Seattle Financing
New Construction Loans are specifically designed for investors undertaking ground-up residential projects. This financing is crucial when an investment property is being built from the ground up, requiring a structured approach to fund land acquisition and the entire construction process.
For investors, the right construction financing depends on the project’s scope, the detailed construction plan, the budget, and the intended exit strategy, whether it’s a sale upon completion or a refinance into a longer-term loan.
Brickline reviews the financing request based on the property’s location, the borrower’s experience, the construction program guidelines, and the comprehensive project plan to help move qualified new construction deals forward.

New Construction Loans are business-purpose financing designed for real estate investors to fund the ground-up construction of residential investment properties in Seattle. This includes both land acquisition and the build phase, or just the construction on already-owned land.
These loans are typically used for eligible ground-up residential investment projects, such as building single-family homes, duplexes, or other multi-unit properties intended for sale or rental upon completion. The focus is on new builds rather than renovations of existing structures.
New Construction Loans typically involve a draw schedule. Funds are released in stages as specific construction milestones are achieved and verified. This ensures that capital is deployed efficiently and aligned with the project’s progress and budget.
Brickline evaluates the overall project plan, including the land or site, the detailed construction budget and timeline, the borrower’s experience, and the intended exit strategy (sale or refinance). The strength of the project and its viability are key factors.
Yes, New Construction Loans can often be structured to include the acquisition of eligible land in Seattle, in addition to funding the subsequent ground-up construction. This provides a comprehensive financing solution for investors starting from raw land.
The timeline for a New Construction Loan project varies significantly based on the scope and complexity of the build. It encompasses the construction period, which is managed through the draw schedule, and culminates in the planned sale or refinance of the completed property.
New Construction Loans are generally short-term. The most common exit strategies involve selling the newly constructed property upon completion or refinancing it into a longer-term loan, such as a DSCR Rental Loan, if the investor plans to hold it as a rental asset.
