The challenge

Refinancing a New Construction Portfolio Without Stabilized Income

The borrower had successfully delivered 26 units in a desirable Houston submarket, but timing was critical. The construction loan was maturing, yet the property was physically complete but operationally empty. Lease-up had barely begun, creating a disconnect between the asset's value and its current income.

Roadblocks

For most lenders, this combination results in an automatic decline. Traditional banks require a "seasoning" period—usually 90 days of 90% occupancy—before they will refinance construction debt. With the loan maturity approaching, the borrower didn't have the runway to stabilize.

Traditional approach

Wait for 90% occupancy and 3-6 months of seasoning on the rent roll.
Result: Borrower defaults on construction loan maturity.

Our approach

Underwrite based on market-supported rents and asset quality, not historical collections.
Result: Loan closes in 30 days.

how we executed

Market-based income

We utilized the appraisal's stabilized rent projections rather than the empty rent roll, validating rates via comparable new-construction assets.

Unified process

Underwriting was consolidated into a single operating model for all 26 units instead of separate analyses, saving roughly 2 weeks of processing time.

Construction exit

Funded ahead of maturity.

"We didn’t wait for the asset to stabilize. We built the model it was moving toward and delivered capital on that basis. If you size this on in-place numbers, there is no loan."
