one on construction coming up - FYIhttp://www.scorefairfieldcounty.org/workshops

Have you looked at a typical construction loan yet? 

I'm a hands in kind of guy with a lot of construction and remodeling experience so I'd like to do the sweat equity work on my properties myself but the two hour one way travel time to the city would be a burden for sure.

Regardless of that I felt more comfortable with construction.  

I am from out of state and looking to find if there are any local or regional banks in the Ft Lauderdale area that are in the construction loan market that would be able to finance a construction to perm loan with 5% down for projects over $1Million

He has a construction/flipping background, is very thorough without being alarmist, and makes a nice report with photos documenting his findings.  

It meets my criteria of location, construction quality, etc.
