Are hidden fees and misaligned cash flow turning your “savings” loan into a money pit? Are you sure that a low APR is saving you money? Taking a large lump sum upfront—even with a low advertised APR—may force you to pay interest on money you aren’t using immediately, creating an opportunity cost that erodes your bottom line. 

This Construction MFers podcast episode explores how a seemingly attractive construction loan can come with hidden costs that end up draining your cash flow.

Tune in to find out:

• 𝗛𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝘀 & 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹: Discover how fees—like unused line fees, closing fees, and advanced fees—can push the true cost of your loan far beyond the headline APR.

• 𝗟𝗼𝗮𝗻 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘃𝘀. 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀: Learn why borrowing a lump sum upfront, even at a low rate, might lead to higher costs when you’re not using every dollar immediately.

• 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗟𝗼𝗮𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀: Understand how rigid covenants, from debt coverage ratios to restrictions on distributions, can put your business at risk if you break them.

• 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹-𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗘𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀: From SBA loans to private debt options, tangible examples illustrate when a lower APR isn’t the best deal if the structure doesn’t match your cash flow needs.

If you’ve ever thought that loan savings were a no-brainer, this episode will open your eyes. Let’s dive into how to truly take control of your lending and stop overpaying.
