Create a Construction Loan

A construction loan is a specialized loan in which the principal is not drawn at the start date but can be drawn at any time during the term to maturity of the loan. The principal actually constitutes the limit of the total drawing.

In Fairways Debt, the drawn amount is repaid entirely at the maturity date.
