< Back to Blogs

    If you're looking to build or renovate your home, a construction loan could help you build your dream home or make structural changes to your existing property. Chris, Manager Lending Operations explains what a construction loan is and takes us through some of the important steps involved in the process.

Chris helps to answer some key questions:

  1. Why would you choose a construction loan?
  2. Explain “structural changes” - does this include general home renovations?
  3. How is the loan drawn down?
  4. What is a progress payment?
  5. What documents do you need to supply?
  6. What happens at the end of the construction period?
