Home Construction Loans

Wish you could find that perfect home--one that has everything you want, a wonderful layout and the space you need? If you can't find your dream home, how about building it? Or maybe you've found an older home and want to start a major remodel.

Working with the right mortgage broker and deciding on the best home loan are decisions just as important as using the right architect, contractor, and the proper hammers and nails. Here's a sampling of what we offer.

Construction Loan at Lightning Mortgage
  • Lot loan
  • Construction financing
  • Permanent loans
  • We work closely with builders for construction budgets
  • Build-to-spec loans for contractors

The permanent loans offer flexibility, too. The can be 15- or 30-year fixed loans. Or you can choose 1, 3, or 5 year ARM loans. Best of all, you can change your mind about the permanent loan type you pick (except for the 1-year ARM) during the construction phase.

During the construction phase, you make no mortgage payments. Draws by the builder for out-of-pocket costs are made against the construction account.

  • Full documentation loans are available.
  • Minimum middle credit scores of at least 700.
  • Owner occupied and second homes to 95% loan-to-value.
  • Bridge loans using the equity of existing properties add options as well
  • Loan programs to purchase and fix-up.
  • Or, refinance to fix-up or remodel.

We have unmatched options available to us for construction loans.
