Before you choose
Builder approval, draw management and appraisals based on plans require a lender with a construction department.
- Do you offer one-time close construction loans?
- What do you require to approve my builder?
- How are draws released during the build?
How this list is ranked
Specialty evidence carries the most weight (production data, then lender page, then self-reported). Loan officers are listed when a CO license is confirmed with the state regulator (check mark), CO is listed on their lender page, or they work at a bank or credit union (likely federally registered; verify at NMLS). Then branch location, experience (licensed since, per the regulator records we hold) and profile completeness. Disciplinary history is not yet checked by LenDb; verify at NMLS Consumer Access. No paid placement. Methodology.
