What are the Benefits of Construction Permanent Financing?

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2014

Construction permanent financing is a means of financing the construction of and payment for your finished semi-custom home from Lifetime Series Homes. You can read about how construction permanent financing works in our blog here. In short, there are several structured payments during the construction of the home. Once the home is completed, the loan is converted into a permanent loan.

The Benefits of Construction Permanent Financing

Savings on Closing Costs

One of the parts of closing costs is transfer tax. With construction permanent financing, you close on the land before the house is even built. This means transfer tax is assessed on the lot only and not the construction of the home. This can save you a good deal in transfer tax and therefore closing costs.

Tax Benefits from Interest Paid of the Loan

Loan payments for the construction of your home are spread out in several payments. You only pay interest on individual payments during the construction of your home, as opposed to one lump sum, meaning your interest costs could potentially be reduced. (Always consult your tax adviser).

Lower Sales Price

When you use construction permanent financing, the builder uses the consumer rate for the line of credit, which is less than the commercial rate they would have used had it built the home on its own. The consumer rate is generally less than the commercial rate, so the builder will pass on these savings to you.
