How does a construction loan work?2021-02-02T13:14:18+00:00

When building a new home, you will need a different type of loan called a Construction Loan.  After you have chosen which lender will best suit your needs for the homebuilding or renovation project, we will work with your lender to coordinate draws, inspections and other requests that might go along with the process.

Typically a lender provides draw schedule.  This draw schedule specifies when the builder may request funds from the lender and is typically aligned with progress points in the build.  Once construction is complete, a construction loan is typically converted to a traditional mortgage.
