Third Federal Savings & Loan
A Construction/Permanent Loan is a loan granted directly to an individual who has executed a contract with a builder to construct a home. This type of loan automatically converts to a Third Federal Permanent Loan without additional costs or review. The Construction/Permanent Loan is written at either a fixed * or variable rate of interest with basically the same terms and conditions as a Permanent Loan and is governed by Third Federal’s standard terms and conditions during its permanent phase.
End Loans are a form of permanent financing for people who are building a new home while the builder owns the property until construction is complete, and secures a loan and interest rate during the building period. You make no payments for principal or interest until the title is transferred to you.
Whether you're building a new home or buying an existing one, it's always a good idea to get a preapproval before you start looking. At most banks, preapprovals are just a guess, or what the bank thinks you will qualify for based on the going interest rate and your stated income. Not at Third Federal. Our preapprovals are fully underwritten, so when we say you’re “preapproved” for a loan, you’re approved; end of story.
