This program provides for both a construction and permanent Loan, all in one transaction and with one closing. The owners/builders sign one set of Loan documents that covers both the interim construction phase and the permanent Loan phase. Owners/builders may choose from several loan products (Fixed and ARM) and rate lock options. The construction period can vary in length between 6, 9 and 12 months. During the construction period, the Loan will be interest only with interest payments paid from the interest reserve account. When the home is completed, the Loan will be converted to a 30-year or 15 year fully amortizing permanent mortgage Loan.
