You are not able to move forward with the process without knowing what you can afford to spend on your project. And, your personal budget might not be what a lender is willing to lend to you. Having a qualified lender that can help you through the initial loan application process and you can trust is important. Local lenders tend to do a better job than national lenders with personal construction loans. You will need an open line of communication throughout your building process and being able to contact your lender in the same area code helps. If you do not have a partnership already established with a lender we highly recommend Scott Fuller with Umpqua Bank who can be reached by phone at (509) 842-9560 or email at ScottFuller@Umpquabank.com. Not only will Scott guide you to the loan structure that suites your needs the best, he also facilitates the needs of your builder well during the life of the project. You will be building a team of professionals to help you build a successful project and your lender is a big component of that end goal.

Now that you have your overall budget established you need to know how much of your budget can go towards your land purchase. In order to determine this, you will need to know the costs of your home and land infrastructure including a well, water system (pump, pressure tank, water lines, electric lines, etc.), septic system, power, gas (if available) and access road whether it's gravel or asphalt. We provide the service of determining the house and infrastructure costs for you at no charge. We also provide the service of installing all of your land infrastructure needs of your property. Once these costs are determined you are now able to go out on your land search. We have access to many acreage properties for sale in Spokane County you can explore or a realtor can provide the service of locating land for sale in the area. If you need a reference for a quality realtor, of course we can provide that to you if requested.

Once your new home plans and amenities are secured, your construction loan has closed, and the property deed is in your name, we can sign our contract and start building! You will be included as part of our team to build your new custom home during the construction process. There are many decisions to be made along the way but, you will have a lot of help in making these decisions.
