Lending Expertise
We're here for you -- a Truliant Mortgage Loan Officer can answer all your questions and walk you through the entire process.
Building the perfect home, or renovating your existing home, or buying the land in the perfect spot for construction later, can be tricky. The good news is there are many options when you're looking for a construction loan to build your dream home.
Construction Loans
With a construction, you’re able to wrap your property costs and mortgage into a single loan to pay monthly. A single-closing construction or construction to permanent loan, offers the convenience of combining a new construction loan with a permanent mortgage. Instead of applying for and paying fees and closing costs for two different loans, this option automatically converts to a mortgage when the construction is complete.
Renovation Loans
We specialize in drafting the right loan for your renovation project, offering competitive rates and terms. A renovation loan might be right for you to start that remodeling project soon. Or use it to upgrade to more energy efficiency and eco-friendly home products.
Land Loans
At Truliant, we realize that every member has unique mortgage needs. If you're interested in land only and want to wait to build your house, we offer land loans. When you're ready to start the process, our Mortgage Loan Officers are here and ready to serve you.

Differences in Loan Pay-out
Construction loans are paid out in stages, as your home is being built, typically over the course of a year or less. Truliant members are only responsible for the interest which has accrued on the funds spent up to that stage of construction.
When applying for a construction loan, we will ask for a construction timetable, detailed plans of the new home and realistic budgeting. This ensures that we're providing a loan that works for you. We will go over these documents with you to be sure that the costs which the builder has provided is reasonable and that the likelihood for the project to go over budget is minimized.
What a Construction Loan Covers
Your construction loan covers contractor labor, home and roof framing, interior finishing's and landscaping. Furnishings would not be covered.
What You Need to Apply for a Construction Loan
You will need the standard documents as if you were applying for a traditional mortgage, plus some other required information.
