This alliance gives ACUMA member institutions direct access to fully managed construction draw administration, inspections, and cost review services.
Pleasant Grove, UT – July 15th, 2026 – CoFi Blueprint, a fully managed construction lending platform serving community banks and credit unions, today announced a new strategic alliance with the American Credit Union Mortgage Association (ACUMA) to bring embedded construction loan support to ACUMA’s national network of credit union mortgage lenders.
As part of the alliance, CoFi Blueprint joins ACUMA’s roster of endorsed service providers, giving member credit unions preferred access to CoFi Blueprint’s fully managed construction lending support, including draw administration, physical inspections, builder and cost reviews, compliance monitoring, and underwriting support. The alliance is designed to help credit unions grow their construction and renovation lending programs without adding headcount or building out specialized in-house teams.
“Construction lending has always required specialized expertise that’s expensive for any single institution to build and maintain in-house,” said Cameron Harris, CEO at CoFi Blueprint. “This alliance with ACUMA lets us bring that expertise directly to credit unions that are ready to grow their construction lending portfolios, backed by a national association their teams already know and trust.”
“Our members consistently tell us that construction and renovation lending is an area where they want to grow, but staffing and operational complexity get in the way,” said Peter Benjamin, President at ACUMA. “CoFi Blueprint’s fully managed approach removes that barrier, and we’re excited to offer it as part of our services lineup.”
Through the alliance, ACUMA members will have access to preferred pricing on CoFi Blueprint’s services, along with educational resources and joint webinars introduced throughout the year to help credit unions evaluate and launch construction lending programs.
The alliance officially launched on July 1st, 2026, with CoFi Blueprint featured in ACUMA Services’ directory.
