Construction loans, explained.
A construction-to-permanent loan funds your project in stages — called draws — paid directly to your builder as work is completed.
Once your home is finished, the loan automatically converts to a long-term mortgage. One close. One set of fees. One financing partner.
Our lender network specializes in custom construction and understands the documentation builders, appraisers, and underwriters need.
Questions, answered.
Do I need to own land before I start?
No. We help both lot owners and buyers searching for the right parcel. Many financing structures roll land acquisition into the build loan.
How does construction financing work?
Most custom homes use a construction-to-permanent loan: a single close where the lender funds draws during the build and converts to a mortgage at completion.
How long does a custom home take?
Typical timelines range 9–18 months from contract to certificate of occupancy, depending on size, jurisdiction, and complexity.
What does Builder Matchmaker cost the buyer?
Nothing. We are a connection platform funded by our professional network.
