Are you planning to build a new home on land you already own? A bridge-to-perm loan from Mortgage Capital could be the ideal financing solution. Also known as construction-to-permanent or single-close loans, these loans streamline the process by combining construction funding and a permanent mortgage into one. With only one closing, you save time and money on closing costs while simplifying your path to homeownership.
Why Choose a Bridge-to-Permanent Loan?
- Single Closing: Avoid the hassle and expense of separate closings for construction and the mortgage.
- Interest-Only Payments During Construction: Lower your financial burden while building your dream home.
- Smooth Transition: Your loan automatically converts to a standard mortgage upon construction completion.
How It Works
- Construction Phase:
- Begin with your down payment to kick-start construction.
- Once the down payment is used, funds are drawn from your loan in phases, or “draws,” as work progresses.
- Payments during this phase are interest-only.
- Inspections and Progress Checks:
- Before each draw, the lender inspects the construction to ensure progress aligns with the schedule.
- Funds are reimbursed to you or your builder for approved costs, such as labor and materials.
- Transition to Permanent Mortgage:
- After construction, a final inspection ensures all work meets building codes and standards.
- The loan seamlessly converts to a traditional mortgage, allowing you to begin regular payments without additional steps.
Bridge-to-Perm vs. Other Loan Options
- Stand-Alone Construction Loans: Require separate loans for construction and the permanent mortgage, leading to multiple closings and added costs.
- Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC): HELOCs are an option for smaller projects but often come with longer terms and higher total interest costs compared to construction loans.
With a bridge-to-permanent loan, you enjoy a simplified process, consolidated costs, and peace of mind knowing your financing is already in place.
