Home Construction Loans are a type of short-term financing that covers all the costs associated with building a new home. There are two types of Construction Loans:
- Construction-only Loan: Short-term financing, usually for up to a year. Can make interest-only payments during the term. Must be paid off at the end of the term, usually with a new mortgage loan on the house.
- Construction-to-Permanent Loans: Starts out as short-term financing and then converts to a longer term mortgage after the new house is built. Offers the convenience and cost-savings of not going through a second mortgage application process and closing.

When To Use A Construction Loan
Construction loans are most often used to build a custom home from the ground up. They can also sometimes be used to gut renovate a fixer upper home.
Alternatives To A Construction Loan
If you currently own another home that you plan to sell after your new home is finished, you could potentially leverage that home to finance construction. Check how much equity you have in your current home to see if a cash-out refinance, home equity loan, or HELOC could be a viable alternative to a home construction loan.
