Draw Process
- An initial Scope of Work will be provided to Aloha using the template we issue
- The SOW should align exactly with the dollar amount listed as the Construction Reserve on the final loan documents
- Please provide as much detail as possible as a well outlined Scope of Work will help to speed up the draw process and increase the likelihood that the full amount requested is approved.
- For your first draw, fill in the estimated percentage of completion percentages for the line items in Column ‘C’. This will then calculate the requested draw amount ($) in Column ‘D’ · Submit the draw request to Draws@alohaprivatelending.com and include any receipts for soft costs such as architecture, permits, etc.
- Aloha Capital will order the inspection using an outside company ‘CFSI’
- The inspector will then call the point of contact listed in the upper left hand corner of the ‘Aloha Capital Draw Template’ to schedule an inspection
- During the inspection, the inspector will take photos and notes in order to fill out Column ‘D’, verifying the percentage of completion per line item
- Once the inspection is complete, Aloha Capital will receive the report within 1-2 business days and forward along to the borrower for reference
- Aloha or 3rd Party will then review the report and approved draw amount
- The draw will then be released to the bank account that has been provided by the borrower
Additional Questions Answered:
Q: I would like to change my SOW due to additional/unforeseen costs, am I able to do this?
A: Once the SOW is approved, material changes cannot be made to the SOW. We suggest, if possible, adding a 10% contingency to the initial SOW which can help to cover additional costs.
Q: How long does this process typically take?
A: The average turnaround time from date of inspection ordered to the wire reaching the borrowers bank account is about 5 business days.
Lending For Good
We dedicate $25 per loan originated towards our Lending For Good initiative.
We have partnered with Kiva.org, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization whose mission is to unlock capital for the underserved, improving the quality and cost of financial services, and addressing the underlying barriers to financial access around the world. Through Kiva’s work, students can pay for tuition, women can start businesses, farmers are able to invest in equipment and families can afford needed emergency care.
Aloha Capital’s funding to Kiva allows people around the world to start or grow a business, go to school, access clean energy or realize their potential. For some, it’s a matter of survival, for others it’s the fuel for a life-long ambition.
100% of every dollar donated to the Kiva platform goes towards funding loans and 97% are repaid, allowing Aloha Capital to build and recycle it’s donation pool to additional recipients.
