Base salary: $90,000 - $130,000 USD annual base salary (BOE), plus eligible for a performance-based bonus

About ARV Finance

At ARV Finance, we help real estate investors turn opportunities into results. Headquartered in Southern California, we’re a private lender specializing in fix-and-flip, ground-up construction, and bridge loans. We provide fast, flexible financing backed by responsive service, practical solutions, clear communication, and follow-through. Our team takes ownership of each transaction and works closely with borrowers from origination through the life of the loan.

Position Overview

The Senior Draw Asset Manager owns construction draw administration for ARV Finance’s active residential and commercial construction, rehab, and bridge loan portfolio. You’ll oversee disbursements from the first draw through final release, determine whether funding conditions have been met, and resolve issues that could jeopardize project completion, collateral, or lien priority.

You’ll be the primary contact for borrowers, contractors, inspectors, and title partners, and you’ll work closely with Asset Management, Treasury, Accounting, and Servicing. This role calls for someone who can make sound funding decisions under tight deadlines, explain those decisions clearly, and improve how the team manages a high-volume draw pipeline.

This is a hybrid position. Candidates must reside in the San Diego or Los Angeles area and be willing and able to commute to ARV Finance’s San Diego or Sherman Oaks office three days per week.

Key Responsibilities

Draw review and approval

• Manage draw requests from intake through final disbursement. Review contractor statements, schedules of values, invoices, change orders, and AIA G702/G703 forms where applicable against approved budgets, scopes of work, and loan terms.
• Order and evaluate third-party inspections. Compare site photos and reported completion percentages against the amount requested, prior disbursements, and remaining work.
• Evaluate budget overruns, scope changes, and cost-to-complete shortfalls. Work with borrowers to resolve discrepancies and obtain additional borrower funds when required under the loan terms.
• Document funding decisions, approve draws within delegated authority, and elevate exceptions or requests above approval limits. Coordinate timely disbursements, including same-day wires when funding conditions are met.

Portfolio risk and collateral protection

• Coordinate title updates and applicable date-down or construction loan endorsements. Verify required title coverage, lien priority protections, and closing protection letters when applicable.
• Review and track conditional and unconditional progress lien waivers and final releases from contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers. Confirm required closeout documents before releasing final funds or retainage.
• Monitor permits, inspections, certificates of occupancy, project milestones, and loan maturities. Escalate stalled projects, funding gaps, and potential defaults. Coordinate extensions, reserve holdbacks, or notices with Asset Management and Legal as appropriate.

Treasury coordination and draw operations

• Partner with Treasury to monitor unreimbursed advances against warehouse facility sublimits, advance rates, and funding requirements. Reconcile draw balances and interest accruals under the applicable loan terms.
• Prepare approval memos and maintain complete records of draw decisions, supporting documents, exceptions, and disbursements. Coordinate wire execution and reconciliation with Accounting and Servicing.
• Own pipeline reporting, turnaround times, and exception tracking. Set review standards, coach colleagues on complex files, and improve draw controls and workflows.
• Set clear expectations with borrowers, contractors, inspectors, fund control agents, and title officers about documentation, inspections, and disbursement timing.

Qualifications

• At least four years of relevant experience in construction draw administration, construction loan servicing, fund control, or asset management, including direct responsibility for reviewing construction draws.
• Strong knowledge of construction budgets, schedules, change orders, cost-to-complete analysis, and AIA billing documents.
• Working knowledge of California mechanics’ lien waivers and releases, construction title coverage, and disbursement controls.
• Ability to interpret business-purpose loan agreements, notes, deeds of trust, and construction riders. Familiarity with holdback reserves, interest on advanced funds, and warehouse funding requirements.
• Sound judgment and clear communication when enforcing loan conditions, resolving borrower or contractor disputes, and escalating exceptions.
• Proficiency in Excel and experience with construction draw, loan servicing, or document management systems. Experience with Built, Rabbet, The Mortgage Office, or comparable platforms is a plus.
