Build smarter with Luminate’s construction loan options.

Whether you’re working with a builder, designing a custom home, or renovating a property from the studs up, you need a loan that’s built around your timeline and goals. At Luminate Bank, we offer construction-to-permanent loans, one-time-close, and two-time-close programs that help simplify the process and reduce your stress.



We’ll help you understand the difference, choose the right structure, and walk you through every step until move-in day.

What is a construction loan?

A construction loan is a short-term loan used to finance the building of a new home or major renovation. Once construction is complete, the loan is either paid off or converted into a permanent mortgage, depending on the loan type you choose. At Luminate, we offer:

One-Time-Close Loans

A single loan that covers both construction and your permanent mortgage. You’ll close once, lock your rate early, and reduce fees and paperwork.

Two-Time-Close Loans

Separate loans for construction and your long-term mortgage. This gives you added flexibility, especially if you’re unsure of your permanent financing needs upfront.

Construction-to-Permanent Loans

Also known as “C2P,” these loans transition seamlessly from a new construction loan into a standard mortgage after your home is built—no second closing needed.

Do you qualify for a construction loan?

We’ll help you determine which option fits your build and budget best—whether you need a construction-to-permanent loan, new construction loan, or a two-time-close alternative. You’ll typically need:

• A licensed builder and signed contract
• A solid credit score and manageable debt-to-income ratio
• Verified income, assets, and down payment funds

Not sure what you need? No problem! We’ll guide you from plans to keys.
