It is essentially a negotiated business agreement between the non-bank lender and you, the borrower.

Because our private and non-bank lenders’ Term Sheets are anything but standard, they can include any negotiated loan term that you and the lender both agree on, e.g., LVR, interest rate, term extensions.

Your dedicated Zolve Loan Specialist will guide you through the entire process. They will also negotiate with the interested non-bank lenders to make sure that the construction loan solution is tailored to your personal needs.
