About Draw Schedule

Draw Schedule is independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or acting for HUD, FHA, the Census Bureau, the Federal Reserve or any government agency, and it is not a HUD-approved lender or any other lender. To deal with HUD itself, go to hud.gov.

Draw Schedule is operated by Janover Capital LLC, a commercial mortgage capital markets advisory firm at 6401 Congress Ave., Ste. 250, Boca Raton, FL 33487. Developers comparing construction money get term sheets in three different languages: HUD’s loan-to-cost and coverage criteria, a bank’s loan-to-value and equity requirements, a debt fund’s negotiated terms. This site puts them on one page with the rules that set them, and adds what the public data says about how long building actually takes.

What we are and aren’t

We are not HUD, a bank or a lender, and we aren’t affiliated with HUD, FHA, the Census Bureau or the Federal Reserve. Sizer results are estimates, not an offer of credit or a commitment. Janover Capital arranges commercial-purpose financing; it is not a bank or a direct lender, and it does not arrange consumer mortgages or loans on 1-4 unit or owner-occupied homes. Inquiries go to Janover Capital and no one else, and a person there replies.
