Construction Loans in El Dorado County

EL DORADO. County seat, Placerville. Created February 18, 1850. El Dorado -- the far-famed fabulous region of genial clime and never-fading verdure, where gold and precious stones are as common as rocks and pebbles, where wines gently flow from fountains. The name, meaning "the gilded one" in Spanish, appears at the beginning of the 16th century as that of a mythical Indian chief who was said to have been covered with gold dust during the performance of religious rites. When the discovery of gold by James W. Marshall at Coloma in January 1848 became known to the world, California, and particularly that section where gold was discovered, was called "El Dorado." From this fact the county received its name.

A master plan is essentially a "cookie cutter" plan that will be built repetitively. The Master Plan Program establishes a site specific building design approval protocol that is predictable and dependable for an unlimited number of building permits in the current 3-year code cycle. You can achieve standarization and consistancy in the construction process and the time spent during the site specific application is reduced drastically with consistent submittals. The program is limited to licensed contractors with a current California State Contractors license and a current El Dorado County business license.

Unique Capital Still Actively Lending

June 8th, 2010

Unique Capital {LLC|Commercial Lending}remains to lend on commercial {real estate|mortgages} despite the recent credit {difficulties|crisis} in the marketplace. With {conventional|standard|correspondent} programs that go up to 75% {LTV|Loan-To-Value} and govnernment SBA / FHA programs exceeding 90% {LTV|Loan-To-Value}, Unique Capital {Commercial Lender|LLC} remains a {firm|strong} source of commercial real estate loans. Apartment, Multifamily, Office, Retail, Industrial, Mixed-use, self-storage and {hotel/motel|hospitality} {financing|lending} is still being {cultivated|delivered}. Even in this tough environment, Unique Capital is actually able to structure SBA 7a and FHA/HUD loans up to 100% depending on the equity and collateral used for financing. A list of programs can be found on the unique-capital website with specific program parameters.

Unique Capital is also involved in the {acquisition|purchasing} of distressed or discounted commercial mortgage notes. Due to a lack of liquidity in the market, many lenders (banks, insurance companies, pension funds, portfolio companies) are having to sell off assets to improve leveraged ratios. With a limited amount of money in the marketplace and an ever growing amount of assets available, the supply is greater than the demand; thus the ability to purchase assets at a {substantial|sizeable} discount.

As regulators and experts through 2007 and the beginning of 2008 advised that the credit crunch would lighten up towards the end of 2008 or early 2009; speculation now arises that the markets may not cool off and adjust properly until 2010 or 2011.
