Single-Close Construction Mortgage
MCT’s Single-Close Construction Mortgage streamlines the financing process for homebuilders and homebuyers embarking on the journey of constructing their dream home.
This innovative financial product combines two traditionally separate loans—a construction loan and a permanent mortgage—into one single loan. This integration simplifies the loan process, reducing closing costs and the complexity typically associated with construction financing. Whether you’re a first-time homebuilder or a seasoned developer whose clients need financing for their new build, MCT’s Single-Close Construction Mortgage offers the flexibility, support, and financial benefits needed to bring your vision to life.
KEY FEATURES:
- One-Time Closing: The single closing process means borrowers only go through the loan approval and closing process once, saving time and reducing paperwork.
- Lock-In Interest Rate: Borrowers can lock in their interest rate early in the application process, protecting them from potential rate increases.
- Interest-Only Payments: During the construction phase, borrowers are required to make interest-only payments, which helps manage cash flow more effectively.
- Funding for Land Purchase: Can include funding for the purchase of the land as part of the construction loan, if not already owned by the borrower.
IDEAL FOR:
- Homebuilder looking to build their home from the ground up.
- Builders seeking an efficient and cost-effective way to finance new home construction for their clients.
- Individuals who already own land and are ready to begin construction.
BENEFITS:
- Simplicity and Convenience: Combines two complex processes into one, making the home construction process less daunting for borrowers.
