Home and Plans

Your Construction Loan

We know construction financing can seem complicated.  That’s why we break the process into manageable steps and stay by your side along the way.

Step By Step

From Blueprint to Move-In Day

  1. Apply for a Loan

Start by meeting with a TMB loan officer to discuss your plans, determine your budget, and explore the construction loan options available to you.

  1. Decision Time

If you haven’t already, now is the time to start putting your plans together.  Choose a builder, find your lot if you haven’t purchased one yet, and work on designing your new home.

  1. Loan Approval Process

Once you’re ready to move forward, TMB will gather the information needed for your loan, including your home design specifications, blueprints, and construction cost breakdown.  We’ll also order an appraisal as part of the approval process.

  1. Finalize Your Construction Loan

Once your loan is approved, you’ll complete your loan closing to fund the build.  Funds are disbursed through a dual-control checking account to pay for the construction of your home.

  1. Build Your Home

Now comes the exciting part—building your home!  As construction progresses, funds can be drawn for completed work and items purchased for the project.  Lien waivers, invoices, and/or receipts will be collected for work completed and for materials purchased for the project.

  1. Inspections

We will monitor construction with regular inspections to ensure you stay on track and funds are being used as stated.

  1. Transition to Your Permanent Mortgage

As your home nears completion, The Missouri Bank can help you transition from your construction loan into a permanent fixed-rate mortgage, helping make the move from construction to homeownership as seamless as possible.  TMB Mortgage Options

Let's Build Your Future Together...

Unsure if you should proceed?  Here is what a few of our customers have to say about our construction loans:

The Missouri Bank made the new home construction loan process simple and worry free.  From the beginning planning and budgeting stages, to taking the time to explain the dispersing process, every employee at the bank helped with a smile.  I highly recommend The Missouri Bank for a new home construction loan.  Tom Wolff and his team at the Missouri Bank helped bring our families dream home to life.  By walking us through the process of a new construction home loan, Tom and his team we were able to help us build a new home to fit our growing family.  Tom and his whole team made the process easy for us to control our budgets, help us collect all of the proper lien waivers, and to disperse funds to our subcontractors.  We couldn’t have asked for a smoother and easier process to finance our dream home.  We highly recommend The Missouri Bank to help anyone with realizing their dream of building their own home!” – Jake G.

 

“When we decided to build a new house, we were faced with the seemingly intimidating process of obtaining, monitoring, and dispersing money to pay our contractor and his subs.  Our contractor recommended we talk with The Missouri Bank in Wentzville.  When we finally decided to dive into the process we were, to say the least, pleasantly surprised at the ease of the process and the willingness of the staff to help and answer any questions we had.  Every person in that branch made us feel like we had been there for years, yet, we were brand new to the branch.  I can’t begin to think of another organization I would rather do business with. I would not hesitate to go through the process again with this bank.  To an employee, great customer care and relations.  We were so impressed we moved all of our banking to them!  They really are a model for how banks should operate.” – Bob W.
