Commercial Construction Loans

Commercial construction loans are made to experienced developers to provide funds for construction or renovation of a commercial property. Secured by the first mortgage on the property, the primary source for this loan’s repayment is to be the income generated by the property upon completion of the construction. American Savings, FSB may require the project be 25% to 50% pre-leased or pre-sold. As an additional convenience, once the project is completed, the construction loan can be converted to a permanent loan without the borrower having to re-apply for the end loan.

We may further require a specific percentage of pre-sales prior to the disbursement of loan funds.

Lines of credit are offered for short terms and are typically reviewed annually.

Letters of Credit

A letter of credit is issued by American Savings, FSB to a third party on behalf of one of our business customers. The letter of credit may provide performance assurance regarding specific matters described in the letter. Since the third party is allowed to draw upon the letter of credit during its term, it is treated as a loan. Letters of Credit are either stand-by or direct pay, and may be used to enhance bond transactions.
