What is a Construction Loan?

Construction loans provide short-term financing to cover all the costs of building your primary or second home. Once the house is built and a certificate of occupancy obtained, your construction loan can be converted into a longer-term mortgage.
 

How Do Construction Loans Work?

 
Single-close construction loan process:
  • Instead of receiving a lump sum payment upfront, the contractor draws funds throughout the process as certain milestones are met.
  • You have the option of making interest-only payments until construction is finished
  • Construction loan converts to a conventional mortgage without the cost and hassle of a second closing.
