What Is a New Construction Loan?

A New Construction Loan is a short-term loan that covers the cost of building a new home or property — including materials, labor, permits, and land development.

Unlike a traditional mortgage, a construction loan releases funds in stages (known as “draws”) as your project progresses, ensuring you only pay interest on the amount used.

Once construction is complete, you can refinance the loan into a long-term mortgage or permanent financing.

Types of Construction Loans We Offer

Construction-to-Permanent Loan

One loan, one closing — this type converts automatically into a long-term mortgage once your home is completed.

Stand-Alone Construction Loan

A short-term loan designed purely to cover construction costs, with a separate mortgage to follow after completion.

Owner-Builder Loan

For those managing their own construction project, this loan gives you the flexibility and control to oversee the build yourself.

Custom Home Construction Loan

Tailored for homeowners building a custom property with unique designs, features, and budgets.

Investment Property Construction Loan
