Builders Capital Completes $500 Million Growth Capital Facility

Funding Comes as Demand for New Housing Skyrockets!

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, UNITED STATES, October 27, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Seattle-based Builders Capital, the nation’s leading private construction lender, announced today that it entered into a $500 million, revolving, multi-year capital agreement with a major life insurance company.

Builders Capital offers a full suite of construction loan products, with a particular focus on ground-up construction. Since its formation in 2009, Builders Capital has closed over 2,100 loans, across a dozen states. Currently Builders Capital is servicing nearly $700MM in loans, has a robust and growing pipeline of new opportunities in excess of $300MM spanning the country to qualified builders, and expects to have a record year in 2020.

“We are bullish on the prospects for home building and home building finance for the foreseeable future,” said Curt Altig, Founder and Chairman of Builders Capital. “We target markets with supply and demand imbalances and the builders we serve in those markets see the same demographic tailwinds that we see: rising demand for single-family housing and supply that simply hasn’t kept up.”

Added Robert Trent, CEO of Builders Capital: “Demand for Builders Capital’s innovative and customized loan products has never been higher. This new facility will provide us with additional liquidity to grow our relationships with our existing customers while expanding to reach new customers. We strive to be the builders’ most valued relationship in every market we serve and we invite homebuilders to get a no-obligation rate quote by clicking “Get My Rate” at www.Builders-Capital.com or by calling us at (888) 540-9009.”

The Company differentiates itself not only by focusing on ground-up construction, but also by servicing its own loans rather than outsourcing to third parties. The company has developed a proprietary loan servicing software platform that streamlines the customer experience, from origination, through draws, inspections, and payoffs.

Builders Capital was advised in this transaction by Saluda Grade, a premier private alternative real estate advisory and asset management firm. “Saluda Grade’s singular focus on the alternative lending sector has been a tremendous asset to our company,” said Altig.
