Choosing Sydney’s best construction loans

Construction loans are used when you‟re looking to either build a new house or make extensive renovations to an existing property. During the construction period, you‟re often able to choose to make interest-only repayments on loans. Construction loans are always variable rate loans that can be combined with your home loan.

What do I need?

Lenders generally require the following information to process your construction loan:

Signed building contract
Council approved plans
Construction certificate (NSW)
Builders‟ insurance (certificate of currency)
Builders' indemnity/public risk insurance ($5 million minima for most lenders

Typically, a lender will request that your loan is drawn down during the construction period through progress payments. This involves asking your lender to pay the builder for part of the completed work made on your property to date. As each progress payment is made, your loan limit and debt level

increase.
