Can I Build The Home Myself?
While the idea of an owner-builder scenario can be tempting, it often presents complexities when securing a construction loan. Many lenders view owner-built homes as higher risk because of potential delays or issues in construction quality.
However, it’s not impossible. Some lenders might consider your application if you possess the necessary qualifications and experience. Aureus Financial can guide potential owner-builders in identifying the best avenues for financing.
Can a Construction Loan Be Used for Renovations?
Absolutely. If you’re planning significant renovations or extensions to your property, a construction loan might be an appropriate choice. This type of loan will offer the flexibility of draw-downs aligned with renovation stages, ensuring funds availability as the project evolves.
To facilitate loan approval, it’s essential to provide additional documents like a clear renovation plan and a fixed-price contract from the builder or contractor.
