Construction Loans

We'll help you fund your new build or renovation

At The Loan Brokers, we understand that embarking on a construction project, whether it's a new build or major home renovations, is a significant milestone. We are here to assist residents of Glen Iris, Victoria, and across Australia in accessing Construction Loan options from banks and lenders across Australia. Our role is to simplify the process, ensuring you find a loan that fits your needs, budget, and timeline. With our expertise, the journey to creating your dream property becomes less overwhelming and more manageable.

When considering a Construction Loan, several crucial aspects need your attention. Firstly, the loan amount is determined by an ‘as if complete’ valuation of your project. This valuation considers various stages of the project, including council plans and permits. Additionally, our streamlined application process allows you to apply for a loan with ease, ensuring you have the ideal financial setup to reach your goals. We also offer interest-only repayment options, meaning you only charge interest on the amount drawn down during construction. This is particularly beneficial in managing cash flow as you pay sub-contractors such as plumbers and electricians.

A unique feature of Construction Loans is the progressive drawdown method. Unlike traditional loans, funds are released in instalments according to a Progressive Payment Schedule aligned with construction milestones. Payments are made progressively as each stage of the build is completed. This structure means you only pay interest on the drawn-down funds, allowing for better budget management. Progressive drawdowns include progress payments to your registered builder and involve a Progressive Drawing Fee. This ensures that each phase of your project is funded adequately without unnecessary financial strain.

For those considering buying off the plan or embarking on major home renovations, it’s essential to understand council restrictions and regulations. You’ll need a clear development application and must commence building within a set period from the Disclosure Date. It’s important to make a plan that accounts for Out of Contract Items not included in your initial agreement. Whether you're demolishing an existing property or searching for suitable land within your price range, understanding council regulations ensures smoother project execution.

To further assist with construction funding, The Loan Brokers provide guidance on managing additional payments and understanding terms like interest rate and Progressive Payment Schedule. Our expertise helps you streamline planning around construction milestones, ensuring all aspects are covered from initial development applications to final touches on your new build.
