Building Construction Loans

There are many variables to take into consideration when taking out a building construction loan. Communication with both the lender and the contractor is vital. Details of the construction are important to the lender for designing a loan package, and details of the funding are important to the contractor for planning construction. There are no absolutes on either end, and situations frequently change during the course of construction. All parties involved should be informed at every stage of construction.

It is important to note that interest rates in building construction loans are variable, usually placed at a spread to the prime rate (the interest rate banks offer to their most credit-worthy customers). During construction, only interest payments need to be made, but it may be wise to purchase a rate lock agreement that is valid for the duration of the construction period to keep payments steady.
