Important things to know when having a home built.

When considering having a new home built you need to find a builder. This is a big investment and can be very stressful and fun at the same time. When you're a homeowner looking at being your own builder, there can be extra expenses getting the construction loan.

Banks will see a homeowner as a high risk builder. This could create a higher interest rate or extra fees. Having a builder working for you that is approved with a bank for construction loans is an advantage.

When a builder is an approved builder with a bank, the bank has more security that the home will stay on budget and schedule. A bank that does construction loans will have a list of their approved builders.
