EPISODE Notes

Many construction companies would kill for more development projects with less cash down.

In this episode of The Builders Ladder, Ammon Acarapi from Loan Market Development Finance explains how to do just that. 

He shares how non-bank funding is helping builders and developers take on more projects with less money.

Ammon’s approach offers construction companies and developers a big boost, including: 

  • Up to 80% LVR on pre-sold properties. 
  • Flexible financing based on the final property value. 
  • An equity-based lending method that skips income checks. 

These options can lower the barriers for construction companies to expand.

Could this mean traditional bank loans are no longer needed for building businesses? We’ll let you be the judge of that after this episode.

Tune in to discover:

✔The legal and ethical “funding hack” that lets you start projects with just 20% of the usual cash

✔How one developer funded seven times more projects (without using a bank)

✔Why top developers are ditching banks to speed up approvals

✔How to fund turnkey projects without massive cash deposits

✔Why cash flow might not matter in your next project — if you use this tool

✔Plus More!

Whether you’re just starting or looking to scale — this episode offers tools and tips to level up your building business.

About Your Hosts

Too many building company owners work long hours for very little profit, aren’t able to spend time with their families, and are stressed to the limit.

This is not your fault.

You can be the best builder in the world but trade school doesn’t teach you how to run a business.

This is why we created The Professional Builder.

Gaining control over your business doesn’t need to be hard.

Our proven systems have been used by 5,000+ builders from New Zealand, Australia, USA, UK, Canada, and all around the world to get back their freedom.
