Construction Loans | The Loan Designer

Construction

Since 2004 I’ve been helping clients with construction lending and loans. It’s exciting to help clients move into their dream home. I’ve personally used the construction program for my own home. I look forward to helping your family too.

Construction Lending: Find a lot or own a lot, select a builder and let’s build your Dream Home. We’ll be with you from the ground up to keys to your home. We make construction lending easy. I’ve specialized in construction lending since 2004 and built my own homes too.
Construction Loans: Build offers a full range of construction loan financing options including one- and two-time close construction loans on everything from Conventional to FHA and VA. Our in-house Interim Construction Operations team works closely with buyers and builders to ensure a smooth experience when building a custom home.
Long Term Lock Programs: Thrive offers aggressive In-House long-term lock options of 3 plus months specifically for our strategic builder partners. This is a competitive advantage for our builders as we continue to see protracted build times and rising rate market.
