Here’s the Best Way to Finance Your New Dream Home

For many of our clients this is their first experience with building a new home from the design stage through construction.   Our team understands the process can be intimidating, especially the financing of their new home.

Financing the purchase of a resale home or an inventory home that’s ready to move-in is typically done with a conventional mortgage.  However, when building a custom home literally from the ground up, it’s best to use construction to permanent financing.

The benefits of a construction to permanent mortgage include:

• • It allows the owner to lock in the interest rate up front. No matter what happens with rates while the home is under construction, the owner has peace-of-mind their interest rate won’t be impacted.
• • When using a construction to permanent mortgage, the owner doesn’t pay doc stamps on the entire home, only on the value of the lot at closing. This can save thousands of dollars.
• • With this type of financing the owner pays only the interest on the loan amount that has been dispersed until the home is complete.
