What Is a Ground Up Construction Loan?

A Ground Up Construction Loan is a short-term financing solution designed for builders, developers, and real estate investors who are constructing a new property from scratch — whether that's a single-family home, a multi-family building, a spec home, or a large commercial development. No credit check required to get started.

Unlike traditional bank construction loans, our hard money construction loan programs fund the project in draws as work is completed — and cover land costs and soft costs like permits, architectural drawings, and engineering reports. Genesis Commercial Loans represents YOU — the borrower — and works to place you in the best construction loan program for your project, your timeline, and your budget. We serve builders and developers in all 50 states, Canada, and the Caribbean.
