Construction Loans

At HQ LOANS OZ, we understand the excitement and complexities involved in constructing your dream home or undertaking major home renovations in Melbourne. Accessing the right Construction Loan options from banks and lenders across Australia is crucial to making your vision a reality. These loans are designed to cover various stages of your project, ensuring a smooth financial flow from the foundation to the final touches. Whether you're buying off the plan or planning a new build, we are here to guide you through the process with ease and expertise.

When applying for a construction loan, understanding the loan structure and its features is essential. One of the key benefits is the progressive drawdown system, where funds are released in instalments as construction milestones are reached. This means you only pay interest on the amount drawn down, helping to manage costs effectively. Our streamlined application process ensures you can focus on your project rather than paperwork. With interest-only repayment options available, you can maintain financial flexibility during construction.

The coordination of various tasks such as securing council plans, permits, and addressing council regulations is integral to the construction process. At HQ LOANS OZ, we assist you in making a plan that aligns with your ideal location and price range. Whether you need to demolish an existing property or start a development application on suitable land, our team helps navigate these requirements efficiently. Understanding council restrictions and Out of Contract Items not included in your budget can prevent unexpected costs.

Construction loans also involve progress payments to pay sub-contractors like plumbers, electricians, and registered builders. Each stage of your project is evaluated through an ‘as if complete’ valuation, which helps determine the loan amount needed at various stages. Managing additional payments and adhering to a Progressive Payment Schedule ensures that your project stays on track financially. A Progressive Drawing Fee may apply, but it is generally outweighed by the benefits of keeping your project moving forward without financial delays.

It is important to commence building within a set period from the Disclosure Date to adhere to loan conditions. This requirement ensures that funds are utilised efficiently and the project progresses without unnecessary delays. By preparing a comprehensive plan and understanding construction milestones, you can achieve a successful outcome without stress. Whether you're embarking on a small home improvement loan or a major construction project, we provide guidance tailored to your needs.
