Construction Loans built for Los Angeles deals
Los Angeles is the largest construction market in the Western United States. Land values are extreme, teardown-rebuilds are common, and ADU additions have exploded under SB 9. Investor-developers need a lender who understands LA's permitting complexity and can fund in 3-5 days.
Market context: LA ADU builds have a 12–18 month average return horizon and add significant value in high-demand ZIP codes. Teardown-rebuild projects in Venice, Silver Lake, and Highland Park routinely close above $2M ARV.
Who this loan is built for
Investor-developers with a licensed CA GC, approved permits or an active permit timeline, and a clear exit strategy. We finance acquisition + build. Common LA use cases include teardown-rebuilds, ADU additions, multi-family conversions, and coastal new construction.

Common questions from Los Angeles investors
How are construction draws structured?
Typical schedule is 4-6 milestone draws based on a third-party inspector validating completed work. First draw at slab/foundation, subsequent draws at framing, MEP, drywall, and final.
Do I need a licensed GC?
Yes for ground-up new construction. Owner-builders are case-by-case — we look at experience and project complexity.
Can the loan finance both the lot and the build?
Yes. Most of our construction loans finance acquisition + build in a single instrument.
What happens if construction runs over budget?
We work with you. Cost overruns are funded as a loan modification or a small junior facility. Logan has been a builder himself — he plans for the messiness.
Do you fund ADU construction in Los Angeles?
Yes. ADU projects are a primary use case in LA. SB 9 and AB 2221 have expanded ADU rights substantially — we fund ADU construction loans across the greater Los Angeles area.
Have an LA deal under contract?
Logan personally reviews every construction loan request. Term sheet in 24 hours. We fund California.
