When developing a real estate project, you can't forget to analyze today’s market so you can plan for the exit. You see this a lot when home developers say: "Okay, let me get this construction deal started." But most people don't take the exit into account. It's important to consider this because you're either gonna sell it or rent it and that may or may not happen right away. So when you request a loan, you want to ensure that the entire time frame is there. So if you tell me: "Hey, Pedro it isn't gonna take me 12 months to build a house." I'll respond by saying: "Awesome... how long do you think it's gonna take you?" "Six months?" I'd then respond: "Have you analyzed the current sales cycle for a product like yours in the market you’re looking to build? You may be surprised to find that from construction to the sale of the asset, the time frame may look closer to 18 months. So why don’t we work on a loan that mirrors the sales cycle of the property to have some cushion there in case the market doesn't do as well as you think it will." Then I would go on to say: "There may be many variables that could impact the sale of the property. This rate environment is there to slow spending, so your property may not sell as quickly, so keep that in mind. Let’s make sure that we give you a 12-month term for construction, and an additional six months to sell because there could always be delays." I try my best to be prepared for different scenarios to ensure you're protected during that operation because again you can't forget about the exit. Yes, we need to finance the build and ensure we have enough time to stick the landing when we get there. How do you plan for the exit when financing construction? ________ Are you a real estate developer who needs a lender in your corner that you can count on?

How do you plan for the exit when financing construction?

It really seems like the exit generally speaking gets overlooked. People are happy to invest mental capital into the process of getting started but not often enough on the moves you make at the end. Nicely done! Pedro Torres

Really great insights - so valuable to have a lender that is proactive and not just transactional!
