Construction lending is one of the most complicated types of loan and certainly one of the riskiest that your institution can make. It is also one of the most litigated types of loans. From mechanic’s liens and draw disputes to contractor defaults and permanent loan conversions, construction loans carry unique documentation, regulatory, and operational risks. This practical webinar will walk you through best practices for structuring, documenting, administering, and enforcing both consumer and commercial construction loans.
