Golden Capital, a direct private money lender, was encountering significant challenges with the traditional construction draw process. Managing the funding and reimbursement of large renovation projects was cumbersome and inefficient, characterized by lengthy turnaround times and costly third-party inspections.


Solution

Golden Capital turned to Sitewire's digital platform to automate their construction draw process, allowing them to manage draws for construction loans much more efficiently. The platform's easy-to-use, automated, and streamlined system eliminated downtime and provided a single place for communication, resulting in faster turnaround times. Inspection costs were also significantly lowered, making it a more cost-effective solution for both Golden Capital and its borrowers.


Benefits of Automating Construction Draws

  • Streamlined Draw Process: Resulting in faster funding and reimbursements.

  • Efficient Communication and Tracking: Facilitated efficient communication and tracking of the draw process.

  • Cost Reduction: Elimination of the need for costly and time-consuming third-party inspections.

  • Project Management: Ability to easily manage changes to the project scope of work during the draw process.


Result

Since implementing Sitewire, Golden Capital has seen a significant improvement in efficiency and customer satisfaction. With the ability to process draws more efficiently, the company has been able to provide clean, organized packages to borrowers, resulting in positive feedback and repeat business. The automated system has also made it easier for Golden Capital to manage remote locations, such as Hawaii, which previously presented challenges due to longer turnaround times and higher inspection costs. The lower inspection costs have allowed Golden Capital to pass on cost savings to their borrowers, making it a win-win situation for all parties involved.

Overall, the implementation of Sitewire has resulted in increased efficiency, lower costs, and improved customer satisfaction for Golden Capital.

Sitewire announces the launch of BudgetIQ™ and PermitIQ™, two new products designed to eliminate pre-construction risk by validating budgets and flagging permit requirements before funds are deployed. Together, the tools help construction lenders and financiers move faster, reduce costly surprises, and fund projects with greater confidence.

Economic shifts are reshaping construction lending, slowing some demand while rewarding lenders who prioritize speed, flexibility, and certainty. This post breaks down the headwinds facing the market—and where smart lenders are finding opportunity despite them.

Draw delays quietly drain profitability from construction projects. When funding lags, crews stop, schedules slip, and trust erodes between lenders and borrowers. This post breaks down the real financial and relational costs of slow draws—and how digital construction loan management platforms like Sitewire turn speed into a competitive advantage.
