Bellco FCU is a member-owned, not-for-profit federal credit union.

What is a Construction Loan?

If you are planning to build a new home, you’ll need a loan that enables you to draw out money during the construction period to pay your contractor and subcontractors. 

The construction loan is usually combined into one loan that includes the construction phase and your permanent home mortgage, with a single loan closing. Money is disbursed during construction based on the inspection of the property and the percentage of completion of the home, and interest-only payments are required during the construction draw period. 

When construction is finished and a certificate of occupancy is issued, the loan converts into your permanent home mortgage, and regular mortgage payments based on the permanent loan interest rate and the loan term begin.

Bellco FCU offers affordable construction loans and flexible terms. Loan decisions, processing, and draws are all done in Berks County, PA. We’ll work closely with you during the entire process to help you save time and money.
