Retainage — DrawReady Glossary

Retainage

Retainage (often 5–10%) is money withheld from each draw and released at the end of the project. It protects the lender and owner but can leave your final draw short if you don’t plan for it.

Your project shouldn’t stop because your draw isn’t ready. DrawReady checks it before it reaches your lender.
