The Building Loan Contract is a specialized financing agreement used in Belgium when funding is required for new construction projects or major renovations. This document type is essential in the Belgian real estate and construction financing landscape, combining elements of traditional mortgage lending with specific construction-related provisions. It is designed to protect both lender and borrower interests while ensuring compliance with Belgian financial regulations, construction laws, and EU directives. The contract typically includes staged disbursement provisions linked to construction progress, architect certifications, and specific consumer protection measures required by Belgian law. It's particularly relevant in scenarios where property development requires structured financing with clear milestones and quality assurance measures.
