How It Works

USDA One-Time Close Construction

Instead of chasing separate loans for land, construction, and permanent financing, eligible borrowers may be able to combine the process into one loan and one closing.

1

Review the Scenario

We look at the borrower, income, credit, property location, land situation, and overall construction goal.

2

Confirm Rural Eligibility

The home must be in an eligible rural area and meet applicable USDA and property requirements.

3

Structure the Build

Builder, plans, budget, appraisal, and construction documents are reviewed as part of the loan process.

4

Close One Time

The goal is simple: land, construction, and permanent financing handled through one closing.

What Can We Review?

Every file is different. A quick review helps determine whether the borrower, property, builder, and construction plan may fit USDA guidelines.

You Need Land + Home

Looking for land and wanting to build? We can review the full land-home scenario and discuss eligible rural areas.

Manufactured or Modular

Some manufactured or modular construction scenarios may be reviewed depending on program, property, and builder requirements.

Builder Questions

Construction financing requires the builder, budget, plans, and timeline to make sense. We can help identify early questions.

Low-to-No Down Options

USDA financing may offer low-to-no down payment options for eligible borrowers and eligible properties.

Denied Elsewhere?
