SAVE Time and Money with 1-Time Close Construction to Permanent Loans
Save time and money with Real Estate Resource Home Loans’ Construction to Permanent loans for new manufactured homes, modular homes, and one-unit stick built construction. We are currently offering Construction-to-Perm loans in Illinois, Indiana, and Florida.
Why consider a 1-Time Close Loan? These fixed rate FHA and VA financing solutions provide construction financing, lot purchase financing, and permanent financing for when construction is complete as one loan. Thus, borrowers can take out a single loan instead of having to deal with three separate mortgages! Plus, there is no re-qualification and no second appraisal is needed.
How Does It Work? We approve the permanent portion of the loan before the construction of the home begins. Once all conditions for closing are cleared, the final construction of the home may begin. No payments are due from the borrower during construction.

As a rule of thumb, it may be harder to qualify for fixed-rate loans than for adjustable rate loans. When interest rates are low, fixed-rate loans are generally not that much more expensive than adjustable-rate mortgages and may be a better deal in the long run, because you can lock in the rate for the life of your loan.
