Construction-to-Permanent Loans

Financing your custom home build in Nevada is typically a 2-step process. However, Pacific Home Loans will consider financing the land acquisition, construction expenses, and the permanent loan all in one loan, on a case-by-case basis.

Step 1: Land Acquisition

For example:
Cost                                     $500,000
– 25% down                       $ 125,000
Land Loan Amount         $375,000

Land Loans available with 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year term. You should choose a land loan term that will give you enough time to design your home and to select a building contractor.
Step 2: Get Pre-Qualified for a Construction to Permanent Loan:

Once you have a construction budget in place, a PHL loan officer will pre-qualify you for one of our Nevada construction to permanent loans.

If you financed your land purchase with Pacific Home Loans in Nevada, the process of transitioning to a construction to permanent loan is simplified.

Construction Package Checklist:

  1. General Contractor: Retaining the services of a licensed general contractor is required for every construction loan. Exceptions for owner builders will be considered for a licensed contractor.
  2. Construction Contract: The contract, executed by the contractor and the borrower, is an agreement outlining the project cost, responsibilities assigned to the contractor and borrower, and the disbursement schedule.
  3. Plans and Specifications: Plans and specifications used for appraisal purposes must exactly match those submitted to the County’s Building Department. Certification by the contractor is required.
  4. Payment and Performance Bond: A payment and performance bond ensures completion of the construction project to satisfaction. It must be issued by a bonding company acceptable to the lender.
  5. Building Permit: A copy of the building permit issued by the County must be provided.
  6. Property Inspections: Property inspections occur at each disbursement to track construction progress. The project must meet the timeline goals before fund release.
  7. Notice of Completion: Upon receiving a notice of completion from the bonding company, your loan will convert to permanent financing.
  8. Loan Terms: The permanent loan term is decided and locked in at loan submission. Your rate during construction is your permanent rate and is interest-only.

Residential Construction to Permanent Loan:

  • Build a custom home
  • Build a custom Ohana (attached or detached accessory dwelling)
  • Build a custom home and Ohana
