Financing Your Custom Home

Applying for and getting approved for a mortgage and a construction loan can feel like the most challenging part of building a home. At Tatum Homes, we understand how overwhelming the process can be—especially when building a custom home—and we’re here to help you navigate it with confidence and ease.

“We’re here to help you navigate financing with confidence and ease.”

How Financing Works for New Construction

Unlike traditional home purchases, where you only deal with a mortgage lender, new construction requires working with a construction lender, which is often a bank. The process can be more complex, as banks evaluate your financial history differently. They consider factors like your overall financial stability and ability to manage the construction process.

 

Building a new home involves two key loans:

Construction Loan

This finances the actual construction of your home.

Mortgage Loan

Once the home is complete, the mortgage loan pays off the construction loan, and you start your monthly mortgage payments.
