Financing First GUC

James Brown
Posted

Greetings BP,

I'm looking for any direction on finding a lender for my first GUC for a multi-family project. I've rehabbed before but lenders want construction experience on 1-2 builds. I will own the land free and clear so that won't be an issue. I have my builder ready to go. Just need the financing. I considered just doing an FHA One-Time close loan for a SF just to get a project under my belt. I would much prefer to use the land for a mfh to produce max return though.

Anyone know of any products that will lend with no experience?

     Bring on a partner with experience. That is what many do to get over the hump. When you say MF are you referring to 5+ units?
