Building a Home or Working With a Buyer Who Is?

Don’t Miss This Awesome Loan Opportunity!

For the last couple of months, my team and I have been getting a lot of questions about construction loans. After Ian, this makes sense—and fortunately, we have a lot of options. One of my favorites, which I think every homebuyer, realtor, and builder should know about, is the single-close construction-to-permanent (SC CTP) loan.

What is a single-close construction-to-permanent (SC CTP) loan?An SC CTP loan combines a construction loan and a permanent loan into one transaction with one settlement for the borrower. Say you want to build a home for yourself, or you’re a realtor with a client who wants to build a house. This is a great loan type for you because it lets you lock in the permanent loan rate and fees for everything before closing—and as it says in the name of the loan, there is only one closing! This is a huge time and money saver.

It’s also a win-win-win for the borrower, the builder, and the realtor. The borrower can rest easy knowing they have all of their information up front. The builder and realtor can relax too, because even if the borrower loses funding, the deal will go through. With this loan type, the borrower doesn’t need to re-qualify at the end of the home-building process (unless they used a conventional loan and it takes more than a year to reach closing)

The conventional loan is just one of the loan types we offer at VanDyk Mortgage. Here is a quick rundown of all of our product offerings.
