Exploring Citizens Financial’s One-Time Close New Construction Loans for Conventional and VA Financing

Are you looking to build your dream home or invest in a new property? Citizens Financial’s One-Time Close New Construction loans offer a convenient and streamlined solution for both conventional and VA financing options. With a range of benefits and flexibility, this program allows borrowers to simplify the construction process while ensuring peace of mind for all parties involved.

Flexible Financing Options:

Provides a variety of loan programs to suit different needs. For conventional loans, you can choose between 15- and 30-year fixed-rate mortgages, as well as 7/6 and 10/6 adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs). On the other hand, VA loans offer a 30-year fixed-rate option. These options allow borrowers to select the terms that best align with their financial goals.

Conforming and High Balance Loan Limits: Whether you’re looking to purchase a property within the conforming loan limits or require a higher loan amount for high balance properties, Citizens Financial has you covered. We offer loans tailored to meet the specific loan limit requirements, ensuring you have access to the necessary funds for your desired property.

Primary, Second Home, and Investment Properties: Citizens Financial’s One-Time Close New Construction loans cater to various property types, including primary residences, second homes, and investment properties. This versatility enables borrowers to explore different real estate opportunities while benefiting from the convenience of a single loan.

Credit and Loan-to-Value Requirements: To qualify for these loans, a minimum FICO credit score of 700 is required for conventional loans, while a minimum FICO credit score of 620 is necessary for VA loans. Citizens Financial allows a maximum loan-to-value (LTV), combined LTV (CLTV), and high combined LTV (HCLTV) ratio of 95% for conventional loans and 100% for VA loans. These parameters ensure that borrowers have options that align with their financial standing.
