Construction-to-Permanent Home Loan FAQs

How is a Construction to Permanent loan different than a conventional mortgage loan?

Unlike conventional loans, construction funds are not provided in a single lump sum. Instead, we'll make payments to fund the construction project through a series of draws, often referred to as disbursements, as work is completed on the property. As an added benefit, you will only be required to pay interest on the loan funds disbursed while your home is under construction!

Who selects my builder?

Selecting your builder is an important decision made by you and approved by us.

When can my builder start construction?

Construction can begin once permits are approved, and the loan has closed.

What is a “draw” and how is the amount determined?

A draw is a disbursement of funds from your loan for costs associated with building your new home. The draw amount is based on the Draw Schedule agreed upon by all parties before your loan closes. At VyStar. we offer both a Standard and Custom Draw Schedule to fit any project.
