Home Construction Loan FAQs
What does a home construction loan cover?
A home construction loan can be used to purchase land and to cover the costs of building a new home from the ground up. In some cases, home construction loans can also be used for major home rehabilitation projects or when adding footage to an existing home.
Can you refinance a home construction loan?
Yes, at the end of the home construction loan term your home construction loan must be converted to a conventional loan.
Are there any disadvantages to home construction loans?
With our home construction loans, the rate is not locked in for your permanent financing. Your home construction loan is one loan (and one closing), then when your build is complete, you will refinance and convert your home construction loan to a permanent conventional mortgage, which would be a second closing.
Are there different types of home construction loans?
Field & Main offers one type of residential construction loan.
What will I need to get a new home construction loan?
In addition to other underwriting guidelines, you must meet the following requirements to qualify for a home construction loan: a credit score of 660 or higher, debt-to-income ratio of less than 40%, and a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 90%.
