Lot Loan Benefits
Using a loan to buy land gives you a unique opportunity to design and develop your property as you wish.
How Does a Residential Lot Loan Work?
Plan
Let’s start with your finances – getting them sorted is key! Next up, find and choose a builder. But here’s an important step: ensure your builder is ready and qualified to work with TEGFCU. Keep it simple, friendly, and clear – because we’re here to help you every step of the way!
Apply
Gather up your specs, plans, surveys, and all the necessary permits and certificates. It’s like collecting the pieces of a puzzle! Next step? Grab your builder’s proposed disbursement schedule. Remember, we’re here to guide you, offering valuable info every step of the way.
Build
TEGFCU will inspect if needed. Why? Because we care about making things right. Next up, we’ll send the funds to your builder following the disbursement schedule. During construction, you’re only paying the interest on the loan. That’s right, just the interest. Let’s get building!
Convert
You’ll need to provide us with your certificate of occupancy, the final survey, and your homeowner’s insurance policy. Next up, let’s look at the amortization documents together. Why? Because they’re your roadmap to understanding how your mortgage payments are going to roll out before you begin the last step, repayment.
Did you know residential lot loans go by many other names?
You might hear them called land purchase loans, raw land loans, land lot loans, land mortgage loans, vacant land loans, or even land and construction loans, to list a few. But here’s the key point: no matter what name they go by, these loans help you finance the land where you’ll build your dream home. It’s all about getting you closer to turning that dream into reality!
JJ made our HELOC loan process run smoothly. From start to finish he kept us informed of the progress of the loan and answered all the questions we had during the process. He even followed up after the closing to check how it went. I would not hesitate to recommend TEG.
Jessica and the TEG team were extremely helpful in finding a home loan that would suit our needs. Not only was she knowledgeable, she also went above and beyond answering questions and emails after hours. We ended up doing a construction to perm loan. This being the first time my husband and I were building, we had so many questions. It was comforting to know that Jessica was able to answer our questions at any time. I would definitely recommend Jessica to anyone searching for a home loan!
Mathew Bannan was the best I couldn’t have asked for more completely upfront with us and walked us through every step of the process made it simple and easy for us to understand and our loan was completed.
Easy to deal with. Scott and the team at TEG were a pleasure to work with. They made my re-fi experience so easy and were extremely accommodating to our needs to especially when it came to the closing. I would highly recommend Scott and TEG for anyone needing a mortgage or looking to re-fi as I did.
Jeff was extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of our interaction. Whenever we had concerns, he was easily able to put our minds at ease. We recommend him to anyone looking for the best in the business. He truly was awesome.
