Lending & investment · Defined
Takeout financing
Financing intended to replace an earlier loan, commonly permanent financing replacing a construction or bridge loan.
Why it matters
A plan to refinance is different from an unconditional commitment. Completion, occupancy, valuation, and operating-performance conditions may affect when replacement financing can close.
In practice
A project example
A construction loan approaches maturity while the building is still satisfying the permanent lender’s leasing requirements.
