Here's an example of Home Construction loan terms

Loan example: On a 30-year construction loan of $180,000 and an estimated property value of $240,000 at 4.04% APR (interest rate 4.00%), there would be interest-only payments during the construction period, with monthly payments of $859.35 for the permanent loan period. Qualification is based on credit profile, loan-to-value ratio, and loan term. Rate is based on specific product type chosen. An escrow (impound) account may be required for taxes and insurance and will increase the amount of the monthly payment. All loans subject to approval.
