Martin and Janice

Martin & Jan
 Ohio

"I can't believe that we are building our dream house!  Thank you so much for listening to Janice and me when we wanted to build a house from scratch and could not find the right lot.
 
When we found out that you and Gateway Funding could provide the money to tear down our current house and build our new house in the neighborhood where I grew up, it was lifesaving.  And Janice and I did not have to make any payments until we moved in!"

 

Types of Construction Loans that we fund:

We fund many types of construction loans.  Our focus and specially is loans to consumers wishing to build or improve their own house.  We do not provide funds
to builders or investors interested in 'flipping' houses for profit.

A list of our major programs is below.  We can handle many projects that are
outside the box, but we are still talking standard houses, where appraisable
'comps' can help us determine completed value, not 'tree houses', 'missile silos'
or 'geodesic domes'.

Give us a call and let us find a way to help you; a big advantage of our experience
is our ability to give you more knowledge, tools, and options available than our competitors.  If your area supports the completed value - we can likely find a way
to provide you the funding.

Many of our loans are available as one time close (OTC), which saves you the
cost of closing twice. With an OTC, once the construction is done, the loan automatically converts into a conventional loan product.

New Build Loans: from the ground on up!

New Builds are complete houses built from scratch.  This is sometimes referred to as a 'stick-build'.

Whether you own the land, or we help you purchase it, the final finished value is used to determine the maximum loan amount and the minimum down payment required.  We will help you each step of the way, providing you as much or as little guidance as you require.

Our mortgage bankers have construction management experience to assist you in make this process smooth and enjoyable.

Remodeling and Renovation Loans

We refer to remodeling loans as any loan for changes to a home that is currently occupied or capable of occupation.  Larger remodeling jobs are sometimes called renovation projects.

Our most popular product - as you keep your existing home in an area you love. Add a room, change a space, redo your flooring.  Your house can evolve and change with your lifestyle and your personal needs.  Since we use the completed value of your home, your out of pocket expenses can be minimal.

Rehab Loans: Restoration Plus

Rehab loans, short for rehabilitation, are loans for converting an uninhabited space into a habitable home.

If you can see through the cracked plaster, squeaky floors and an leaky roof, so will we.  Rehab for fun or profit - homes that require a Restoration Plus loan can usually be purchased at a great price.

One type of Rehab loan we offer is a Section 203k rehab mortgage.  A 203k loan will allow you to purchase or refinance the home.  Included in the loan amount can be funds for making repairs/improvements, a contingency fund, and closing costs.

203k Rehab loans can a fixed or adjustable-rate mortgage from a HUD-approved lender.  Normal down payment requirement is approximately 3% of the home acquisition and repair costs.

Other type of Rehab loans are also available.  Since we can work from the completed value of the property to determine loan amounts, you can not only restore a property to its former glory, but also bring it to modern standards. 
You can even add an addition if you like, as we can make these loans very unique to the situation.

SIVA loans are available: Stated income, verified assets. Requires Bank statements to prove you can pay the first couple months payment, and a decent credit score.

Lending Correctly does NOT offer NINA or No-Ratio loan types.  Our rates are too low to justify higher-risk loan products like these.
