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 must be licensed in MD or have a branch there. Then branch location, years licensed and profile completeness. Disciplinary actions lower the score and are always shown. No paid placement. Methodology.
Same list as JSON: /api/v1/loan-officers?specialty=construction&state=MD. Not a lender. Not a referral service. Verify licenses at NMLS Consumer Access.
