What are the advantages of a construction loan?

The main advantage of accessing a construction loan is that you repay the borrowed amount in stages depending on the progress of your build.

For example, once you have paid your deposit, you only pay a small percentage of the total owed amount when your foundation slab is laid. This amount remains the same until the next stage of the build and progressively increases as the build continues. This means you’re not out of pocket for the full repayments whilst your home is under construction.

The other perk is that most lenders will require repayments on interest only during construction, again reducing the repayments owed. Once your build is complete, both the principal amount and interest is owed on the full loan amount.

This option makes it much more affordable for some and a viable way of entering the property market,

As an Interstate investor I was quite apprehensive. I did my due diligence & investigations to make sure everything stacked up. Oumi has now put my mind at ease.
