Luxury custom home construction in Lake Oswego with timber framing and lake area views

Builder relationships that build better projects.

Construction development financing is one of the most nuanced areas of mortgage lending. For over 35 years, I have worked alongside builders and developers to structure the financing that turns blueprints into homes.

More than a lender. A financing partner.

My approach to builder relationships goes beyond processing loan applications. I work as a financing partner who understands the full lifecycle of a construction project: from initial site analysis and budget planning, through draw schedules and progress inspections, to the final conversion to permanent financing.

Whether it is horizontal development (site work, roads, utilities, infrastructure) or vertical construction (residential and mixed-use structures), I bring the same hands-on, detail-oriented approach that has defined my career in mortgage lending.

This TimbeRidge Development property at 843 Terrace Dr represents the type of custom construction project I help finance. Located in one of Lake Oswego's most desirable neighborhoods, it showcases the kind of quality craftsmanship and attention to detail that defines both TimbeRidge's work and the financing approach I bring to every builder partnership.

From initial budget planning through draw schedule management and the final conversion to permanent financing, projects like this one benefit from having a lender who understands construction from the ground up.

What experience brings to your build.

After 35 years of mortgage lending, I have learned that construction financing is a completely different discipline.

Draw Schedule Expertise

Managing the timing and documentation of construction draws so builders get paid on time and buyers stay on budget.

Anticipating Underwriting Hurdles

Construction files raise unique underwriting questions. I spot them early and resolve them before they become delays.

Builder-Realtor Coordination

Tight coordination between builder, buyer, realtor, and title so the entire transaction feels managed, not chaotic.

Construction-to-Permanent

One loan that covers the build and converts to permanent financing. No second closing, no second set of costs.

Proactive Timeline Management

Construction timelines shift. I build flexibility into the financing plan and communicate changes before they surprise anyone.

35 Years of Pattern Recognition

I have seen what works and what does not. That experience means fewer surprises and a smoother path from groundbreaking to closing.
