Brant Crockett Concrete Construction: Pioneering Excellence in the World of Concrete

Historically, many people are told to put at least 20% down to finance a home. But, if you have the right circumstances, there are better Options. Securing 100% financing means you will acquire a home without the necessity of putting money down toward your mortgage. 100% financing can open up your possibilities of obtaining the home of your dreams. While that is exciting, it is wise to be informed about the lending package you are entering. 

What Is 100% Financing?

Traditionally, when you apply for a mortgage or construction loan, you would be required to put a down payment of 20% or more toward your mortgage. However, lenders who have 100% financing packages will not require money down towards the mortgage. Of course, this is based on the lender’s package, and there may be other out-of-pocket costs or fees, so it is always wise to review the entire package.  

HiLine Homes has located lenders who have competitive construction loans & mortgage packages. Many of our approved lenders offer unique 100% financing packages structured to allow our homeowners to participate during the home Building process. Our knowledgeable Home Consultants are your resource to help direct you to a lender that will benefit your circumstances.  

What Is A Construction Loan?

Broadly speaking, a construction loan is a short-term loan that allocates funds to pay for materials and contractors to build your home. This loan will roll the cost and preparation of the land, permits, and other items needed to build a complete house into one construction loan. Typically these loans only last a year or less and end once the certificate of occupancy is issued.  

How Does a Construction Loan Turn into a Mortgage?

Once you have your certificate of occupancy, you will start to move into your beautiful new home. At this point, your construction loan will begin the process of converting to a permanent mortgage. This process is dependent on if you signed up for a 1-step or 2-step construction loan and the specific lender package. Either way, your home will be inspected & appraised to determine the value.  

HiLine Homes Approved Lenders know our products and reputation, which allows the process to be streamlined. Usually, the lenders who offer 100% financing packages take the final appraised value of your home and use your equity as your down payment.  

When Does 100% Financing Makes Sense? 

By securing a 100% financing package, the funds you’d normally put towards a down payment will stay in your savings account. This establishes a secure financial position that your lender can use to your advantage while qualifying you for your final mortgage. When you are ready to complete your final mortgage, discuss with your lender the possibility of rolling in higher interest loans, such as a car or college loan, to maximize your financing and saving potential.
