Construction
What is a
New Construction Loan?
A new construction loan is short-term financing designed to cover the costs of building or developing a property from the ground up.
Instead of one lump-sum payment, funds are released in stages or “draws” as your project progresses — keeping your build funded and on schedule.
At New Century Lending, we specialize in flexible, investor-friendly construction loans that can easily transition into permanent financing once your project is complete.
Use a Construction Loan To:
-
- Build a primary or secondary residence
- Develop new investment properties
- Finance multi-unit or mixed-use projects
- Fund land acquisition and vertical construction

Frequently Asked Questions
How long are construction loan terms?
Most construction loans run between 6 and 18 months, depending on your project timeline and size.
Do I need to own the land first?
You can finance land acquisition and construction together — or use land you already own as part of your down payment.
How are funds disbursed?
Funds are released in draws, based on the progress of construction. Each draw is verified to keep your project on schedule.
Can I lock in a permanent loan after construction?
Yes — New Century Lending offers construction-to-permanent options so you can transition smoothly to a long-term mortgage once your build is complete.
What’s the minimum down payment?
Typically 10–20% down, depending on your credit, project type, and overall budget.
Can investors use construction loans?
Absolutely. We finance spec homes, rental builds, and multi-unit developments designed for long-term investment growth.
