What to Know About Del Mar

Del Mar is one of the smallest cities in the county, a beach town known for the fairgrounds and racetrack along the San Dieguito River. Homes range from beach cottages in the low-lying Beach Colony to hillside houses with ocean views above the village, and the train tracks run along the bluffs.

Del Mar has a design review process that weighs view and neighborhood impact, and the entire city is in the coastal zone. Homes near the river mouth can carry flood-related building requirements, while hillside lots need grading and drainage plans. We underwrite to the approved plans and plan draws around that review time.

Straight Answers

Construction Loans in Del Mar: Questions

How does Del Mar’s design review affect a construction loan?

It mostly affects timing. We underwrite to the plans once they’re approved and plan draws with that review in mind.

Do you lend in Del Mar?

Yes. We’re a California-licensed direct lender headquartered in Glendale, and we underwrite San Diego County deals directly, including Del Mar, rather than routing them through an out-of-state call center.

How do construction draws work?

The loan is released in stages. As each phase of work is completed, it’s inspected, and the next draw is funded. That keeps the money matched to progress on the job.
