Application Process (typically 90-120 days from receipt of a full loan package):

• Submit a Project Summary Form and executive summary or detailed description of the project;
• Pay the $500.00 application fee using the Pay Now button to the left;
• If a Letter of Interest (LOI) is issued, it will articulate an initial rate and term that will be refined during underwriting.
• If you are interested in moving forward you must submit the underwriting fee, as specified in the LOI, along with the signed LOI.
• Once your project is placed in underwriting, you will be billed directly for any third-party reports that are required, i.e., appraisal, environmental analysis, feasibility study, etc.  However, we will attempt to insure that the deal fundamentals are sound before ordering any third-party reports.  This will help you avoid incurring additional costs unless absolutely necessary.
• Approximately one week after receipt of the signed LOI and due diligence payment, you will receive a welcome letter.
• Approximately one week after receipt of the welcome letter you will receive a conditions letter that will provide a list of documents that must be submitted.
