Construction Loans

Short-term funding covers labor and material costs while your new home is being built.

We can draw up the financing blueprint for your dream home

 
Building a house from the ground up requires a special approach to financing. At First National Bank, our lenders know how it works and we'll assist you every step of the way.  Your first step is to bring First National Bank a construction contract signed by your builder or developer. Next, we'll use a number of factors - including start and completion date - to structure your financing. After your developer begins work, we'll move things forward by releasing funds at the appropriate time for each construction phase. And when you're ready to move in, your Construction Loan automatically converts to a permanent mortgage.
