Construction Loan FAQs

Common questions about construction financing in Texas.

How much down payment is required for a construction loan?
Down payment requirements typically range from 5-20% depending on the loan program, property type, and borrower qualifications. FHA construction loans may require as little as 3.5% down for primary residences, while conventional construction financing generally starts at 10% for single-family homes and 15-20% for 2-4 unit properties.
What credit score do I need for a construction loan?
Most Texas construction lenders look for a minimum credit score of 680 for conventional construction loans. FHA and VA construction options may be available for borrowers with scores as low as 620-640, depending on other qualification factors.
Can I build a duplex, triplex, or fourplex as an investment property?
Yes, we offer construction financing for 1-4 unit investment properties throughout Texas and 30+ states. Investment property construction loans typically require 20-25% down payment and strong credit and income qualifications, but allow you to consider future rental income in the qualification process.
Do I need a licensed builder for my construction loan?
Most of our construction loan programs require a licensed Texas builder with proper insurance coverage and a solid track record. Owner-builder options may be available for borrowers with significant construction experience, but typically require larger down payments and stricter qualification standards.
How long does the construction loan process take?
The construction loan approval process typically takes 30-45 days from application to closing, similar to a standard mortgage but with additional steps to review building plans, contractor qualifications, and construction budgets.
