Mitigating Risk in Construction Draw Loans

Construction projects hold great potential but also come with risks, especially when it’s time to draw funds. Delays often arise from the lack of up-to-date progress reports, leaving lenders at risk of releasing funds without verifying the work completed. Inaccurate reports, missed timelines, and poor communication can lead to frustration for lenders, contractors, and borrowers. Timely, consistent inspections are crucial for ensuring funds are released as needed, avoiding disruptions that can delay payments, strain budgets, and undermine trust among stakeholders.

Inaccurate inspection reports pose an equally significant risk. Even if inspections are completed on time, errors in reporting can result in inaccurate loan disbursement decisions. This may lead to overpaying or underpaying contractors, affecting project finances and timelines. A lack of communication between stakeholders—borrowers, lenders, and contractors—can lead to misunderstandings and missed opportunities to address issues early on.

At Leeway Inspections, we address these challenges head-on. Our process focuses on providing timely and accurate inspections to ensure that the recommendation of funds flow smoothly and projects stay on track. Timely inspections are essential for preventing delays in payments and construction progress. We prioritize completing inspections quickly, without compromising accuracy.

Accuracy is a top priority. Every inspection undergoes a thorough in-house review by our team of experts to ensure every detail is correct. This allows us to provide reliable, precise data that enables lenders and borrowers to make well-informed disbursement decisions.

We also emphasize proactive communication. From the moment we receive a request, we keep all stakeholders informed, addressing any concerns and resolving issues as they arise. This proactive approach ensures that there are no surprises, keeping projects on schedule and stakeholders aligned.
