Questions

Can I buy the land now and build later?

Yes. Lot financing is available up to 75% with 25% down. You can choose a 12-month interest-only option or a longer-term principal and interest structure while you finalize your plans.

What does "lesser of loan-to-cost or loan-to-value" mean?

We look at two numbers: the total cost of the project (lot plus construction) and the appraised value of the finished home. Financing is based on whichever is lower, up to 85%.

What happens when construction is finished?

The construction loan is short-term interim financing for the build. When the home is complete, it is typically paid off with a permanent mortgage, and we can help you line up that permanent financing too.

Do I need a builder?

Yes. We will need a construction contract with the builder's cost estimate, plans and specifications, and the builder's contact information.

I already own my land. Can it help?

Your land and its value can be an important part of your financing strategy. Bring us your plans, builder information and budget and we will show you how your project can be structured.

What are the origination fees?

Lot loans carry a 1.00% origination fee and interim construction loans a 0.50% origination fee. Other closing costs vary by project; we will walk you through all of them before you apply.
