Real estate fund investing is very different than most investments for one overwhelming reason – the investments are secured by tangible assets. HCI will maintain full control of the assets throughout the improvements on behalf of the investors, because we maintain full control, there is no need to worry about the REO property. Investments like stocks are based on valuations with no tangible security. If those investments fail to perform, there is little to nothing that can be done to protect the value of your investment other than liquidation.

Real estate investing comes in all different shapes and sizes, and there is not a one-size-fits-all answer to “what am I investing in?”. The type of service that HCI specializes in, however, is a real estate investment fund. By far, the most common and popular way to enter the real estate investing space is through a Fund. A Fund is a supply of capital belonging to numerous investors used to collectively purchase securities (in this case real estate notes) while each investor retains ownership and control of his or her own shares. Funds provide a broader selection of investment opportunities, greater management expertise and lower investment fees than investors typically can obtain on their own.

Each potential deal considered goes through our rigorous proprietary due diligence process.

This is a niche investment opportunity that is typically offered by very specialized firms. As such, there are only a handful of opportunities like these in existence.

Our fund is a private placement which is a security that is not publicly offered on exchanges like the NYSE and NASDAQ. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) limits private placements to accredited investors only. These regulations limit this kind of offering to those with the necessary sophistication to protect the investor from taking on an adverse level of risk.

Our investment model differs from REITs in the following ways: • They are privately traded. • We only deal with Texas-based single-family real estate, not commercial or multi-family properties. • You can use cash or qualified money to invest directly in these properties unlike REITs which require that you invest through a company, exchange-traded fund or mutual fund. • They offer a preferred return and no fluctuation with RE swing. • They are taxed as K-1. • There is no research needed on how that property’s market is doing or if it is cash-flowing. We do that for you.

Peace of Mind: Tried-and-true best building practices followed by independent inspections and testing from certified professionals mean that you can be confident that things were done right. Enduring Quality: Value-adding energy efficiency features and a combination of materials and equipment deliver better performance and an overall superior level of quality. Wall-to-Wall Comfort: You’ll see, feel, and hear the difference of a heating and cooling system that has been engineered and installed to efficiently deliver comfort. Enjoy consistent temperatures across every room and a constant supply of fresh, filtered air reducing indoor pollutants, dust, pollen, and other allergens. Proven Value: Better energy efficiency and performance means lower utility and maintenance costs. ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments are at least 10% more energy efficient than homes built to code and achieve a 20% improvement on average, and even more when compared to most resale homes on the market today. View the CRV Homes EPA Flyer with more information.

Comprehensive air sealing, properly installed insulation, and high–performance windows work together to enhance comfort, improve durability, reduce maintenance costs, and lower monthly utility bills. Learn more about a complete thermal enclosure system in this fact sheet (PDF, 7.86KB). Air Sealing By using less energy for heating, cooling, and water heating, ENERGY STAR certified homes deliver at least 10% savings on annual utility bills. Over the 7 to 8 years that a typical family lives in a home, you can save thousands of dollars in utility costs. Properly Installed Insulation It's not just the amount of insulation; it's the quality of installation that makes all the difference. Proper installation includes careful placement to eliminate gaps, voids, and compression; complete air barriers that prevent air from bypassing the insulation; and building techniques that minimize heat flow through framing. This ensures consistent temperatures throughout the house or apartment, reduced energy use, and increased comfort. High–Performance Windows Advanced technologies, like protective coatings and improved frames, help keep heat in during winter and out during summer. They also block damaging ultraviolet sunlight that can discolor carpets and furnishings.

High–efficiency systems are engineered and installed to deliver more comfort, better moisture control, improved indoor air quality, and quieter operation. Learn more about a complete heating and cooling system in this fact sheet (PDF, 1.83MB). Efficient Heating and Cooling Equipment Look for higher efficiency equipment that delivers premium performance. This equipment uses less energy, operates at reduced noise levels, and often comes with extended warranty coverage. Proper Design and Quality Installation Practices The heating and cooling systems in ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments are designed and installed in accordance with industry-accepted best practices and subject to independent review and inspection. Improved Indoor Air Quality The living space in ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments are served by ventilation systems that continuously exchange indoor air with outdoor air to reduce the indoor air pollutants in your home. Systems are also installed in bathrooms and kitchens to more rapidly remove moisture and cooking contaminants that can be harmful to occupant health and to the durability of your home. * Applies to installation of ventilating systems and the most common types of heating and cooling systems in new homes.

A comprehensive package of best building practices and materials protects roofs, walls, and foundations from water damage and helps ensure durability and prevent moisture-related indoor air quality problems. Learn more about a complete water management system in this fact sheet (PDF, 3.51MB). Water–Managed Construction Details Tried–and–true building practices, such as flashing, moisture barriers, and heavy–duty membranes, are employed to effectively drain water from the roofs, walls, and foundations of ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments. Building Materials Proper storage and selection of materials helps prevent water– and mold–damaged materials in ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments.

ENERGY STAR certified lighting, appliances, and fans can be found throughout an ENERGY STAR home, helping to reduce monthly utility bills, while providing high–quality performance. Learn more about energy-efficient lighting and appliances in this fact sheet (PDF, 1.55MB). Advanced Lighting ENERGY STAR certified fixtures and bulbs come in many shapes and sizes. This gives home buyers a wide range of lighting choices that allow them to create the atmosphere they want for their homes. ENERGY STAR lighting offers significant cost savings and longer lifetimes than standard products. ENERGY STAR Certified Appliances Household appliances account for nearly 11 percent of energy use in an average house. A comprehensive package of ENERGY STAR certified appliances can reduce energy costs, while offering improved performance, quality, and durability. ENERGY STAR certified homes and apartments often include ENERGY STAR certified dishwashers, refrigerators, washing machines, ceiling fans, and ventilation fans.

​ ​The label that comes with every ENERGY STAR certified home may look small. It measures ​​just three by five inches. But what it stands for is really big. It means that a home has undergone a better process of independent inspections and testing to ensure it meets strict requirements set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Learn more about independent inspections and testing in this fact sheet (PDF, 1.91MB). How New Homes Earn the ENERGY STAR A home that meets EPA's strict energy efficiency requirements achieves this level of performance through a complete package of building science-based energy efficiency systems and measures that are third–party verified by a Home Energy Rater. Many steps are taken by the builder and Rater during design and construction to ensure all ENERGY STAR requirements are met and verified. STEP 1: Builder or Developer Becomes an ENERGY STAR Partner Through a partnership with ENERGY STAR, a builder or multifamily developer commits to constructing and verifying homes/apartments to meet all of ENERGY STAR’s strict energy efficiency requirements. The builder or developer also selects an Energy Rating Company to work with to certify their homes or apartments. STEP 2: Builder or Developer Selects Energy Efficiency Features The builder/developers submits their architectural plans to their Energy Rating Company (ERC) for review and analysis. The ERC and/or energy modeler looks for key information on the plans to help the builder choose the best combination of energy-efficient features to ensure that the home will earn the ENERGY STAR label when constructed. For most single-family homes and apartment buildings, the design team and ERC will select a custom energy efficiency approach using specialized energy modeling software. For manufactured homes and some multifamily buildings, the design team will rely on a prescriptive package of energy efficiency features developed by EPA. For a home to be truly energy efficient, its design and construction must consider local conditions. Energy Rating Companies’ verification staff are trained in climate-specific energy savings techniques, and their knowledge and field experience helps ENERGY STAR builder and developer partners select the most energy-efficient features. STEP 3: Builder/Developer Constructs Home and Rater Performs Field Verification and Quality Assurance With the energy-efficient features selected, the builder/developer proceeds with home construction. The Energy Rating Company conducts onsite inspections and testing* during and after construction to ensure rigorous ENERGY STAR requirements are met. Homes that earn the ENERGY STAR typically undergo significantly more systems engineering, inspections, and testing than home built to code. This extensive and detailed verification process identifies and corrects mistakes that may impact a home’s energy efficiency before they become problems and holds builders accountable to higher standards. The process typically includes a blower door test to measure whole-house air leakage and a duct blaster test to measure air duct leakage. During the inspection process, the Energy Rating Company utilizes a set of comprehensive ENERGY STAR checklists designed to deliver better efficiency, comfort, quality, and durability. STEP 4: Rater Certifies the Home and Issues an ENERGY STAR Label After the Energy Rating Company (ERC) completes the final site inspection and determines that all ENERGY STAR requirements have been met, their team will provide the builder/developer with the ENERGY STAR label, which is typically placed on the circuit breaker box of a home or apartment. This label is proof that the home is ENERGY STAR certified, and includes the home address, builder/developer name, ERC name, and date verified. The blue ENERGY STAR label makes it simple for homebuyers and renters to choose truly comfortable and energy efficient new homes and apartments. *Builders and developers who have demonstrated an ability to consistently meet ENERGY STAR requirements may have homes that meet certain eligibility criteria certified based on tests and inspections performed on a sample of the homes.

When building a home on your property, CRV Homes follows applicable codes in the construction of your home. In addition, through our in-house quality verification, our construction professionals check each home at key stages to be sure nothing is overlooked or below standard. As a Texas home builder committed to quality, CRV Homes has undertaken this comprehensive quality verification program to provide consistent, high-quality homes to our Homeowners. Furthermore, additional inspections are taken at 10 critical stages of construction - see below.

The pre-placement inspection is designed to insure that the foundation make-up is per plan and meets existing applicable codes.

Plumbing grounds are inspected for proper installation as well as pressure tested to minimize the chance for underground leaks.

The foundation design and make-up are only as good as the concrete materials being placed within the forms. An on-site inspector monitors the placement of all concrete materials.

All framing is inspected according to the determining guidelines of not only code compliance, but also for plan compliance as well.

All piping within the frame is inspected for code compliance prior to the installation of insulation & sheetrock.

All electrical components such as conductors, boxes, etc. are inspected for code compliance and workmanlike installation.

HVAC systems are inspected for code compliance as well as proper installation. All ducts within the system are inspected for leaks.

All infiltration points into the conditioned space are inspected for properly sealed blocking. Insulation is inspected for proper installation and code compliance.

A final inspection encompasses code compliance, workmanship as well as proper drainage established at the foundation perimeter.

The final energy tests must prove through performance the efficiency of the home. Duct blaster and blower door testing are required to initiate the energy certifications.

This section is a valuable resource for anyone planning to build a custom home. It provides information on the financing process, a helpful glossary and a timeline to help you plan your project. How you finance the construction of your new home is one of the most important things to consider. Our perferred lenders are leaders in home construction lending, specializing in Single Close Construction Loans. They are well known for our exceptional customer service, and they understand the needs of both the you as the home buyer and us as your builder. Our perferred lenders Single Close Construction Loan takes you from groundbreaking to move-in, in one easy process. If you decide to work with one of our lenders, you will be working with construction loan specialists who are able to answer all of our questions so that your home construction keeps moving smoothly with no surprises along the way.

We offier through our lenders a Single Close Loan designed to build a primary residence. Single Close means one loan – start to finish. You sign one set of loan documents that covers both the interim construction phase and the permanent loan. This eliminates the need for multiple loans to get into your new home. With a single loan, you can purchase the land for your home and complete the construction. When construction is complete, the loan converts to a permanent mortgage loan saving considerable time and money. The construction period is normally up to 12 months to allow time to build the new home and sell the existing home.

There are a number of costs that go into building a new home: LAND VALUE You may purchase the land you have under contract at closing with proceeds from the Single Close Loan, or you may have already purchased the land and have a loan to be paid off with proceeds from the Single Close Loan. Or, you may own the land free and clear. SOFT COSTS Permit fees, engineering fees, architectural fees and other costs associated with building the home, but not directly part of the actual construction costs. HARD COSTS The tangible costs associated with the actual construction of the home. This includes materials and labor costs. ALLOWANCES Sums included in the construction budget for items to be selected in the future, such as flooring, cabinetry. CONTINGENCY RESERVE A Contingency Account is recommended on all contracts to cover change orders or upgrades. Differences between budget allowances and actual costs are usually handled through change orders. TOTAL COSTS The total cost consists of all of the above. MAXIMUM LOAN AMOUNT You may borrow up to the maximum loan amount as figured from the lesser of the appraised value or the actual cost (lot plus construction costs). LOT EQUITY The difference between the appraised land value and the loan to be paid off on the land, if any, will be the lot equity. The lot equity will be a credit toward the required down payment, if any.

The Single Close Loan process is very similar to a standard purchase or refinance transaction. But unlike a purchase transaction for an existing home, the Single Close Loan involves determining the value of a home that is not yet completed. To assist the appraiser and the lender in determining future value, information must be provided on the planned home, such as what materials will be used and the total cost to complete the project. FINAL PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS These consist of a legible set of architectural drawings (building plans). They must include a floor plan showing all dimensions and outside elevations (drawings of the exterior). In addition, CRV Homes will provide a detailed description of the materials to be used in construction of the home; for example, wood shingle or lightweight tile roofing; brick or stucco exterior. This information will be provided to the appraiser who will determine value, subject to completion per plans and specifications. CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT This is the agreement between you and CRV Homes that details the planned construction project, the agreed upon cost and the construction term to complete the project. The final plans and specifications should be an attachment to the construction contract. DETAILED LINE ITEM COST BREAKDOWN/DRAW SCHEDULE This schedule is prepared by CRV Homes and includes all costs associated with the construction. The total will match the Construction Contract total. The Draw Schedule is used to advance funds to the builder as work is completed. BUILDER PROFILE This form requires information that is supplied by CRV Homes and is used solely for the benefit of the lending company to determine eligibility for their program. Selection of the builder is the exclusive, independent decision of the borrower but CRV Homes is already registered as a qualified builder with many lenders.

Draw disbursements or progress payments are made on a work-completed basis and occur over a period of time as the work progresses. CRV Homes will submit draw requests directly to the lender, itemizing the work completed and the amount requested for payment. The percentage of work completed is determined by an independent third-party inspection service. CRV Homes will designate a construction bank account at a financial institution and disbursements will be wired directly to that account after receipt of the inspection report. As a convenience to you, a copy of the disbursement statement may be sent to you either via email or regular mail each time CRV Homes makes a draw. This statement indicates the amount of funds disbursed and funds remaining on the project. INITIAL DISBURSEMENT The initial disbursement at closing includes the payoff of the lot (if applicable) less your down payment (Initial Cash Deposit to CRV Homes). Also, a startup draw may be disbursed immediately after closing is finalized to get the construction process moving forward. DEPOSITS The cost for special order items may be funded up to 50% of the line item on the draw schedule, when accompanied by a request from CRV Homes together with supporting invoices. FINAL DRAW The final draw to the CRV Homes will be paid upon completion of construction and receipt by the lender of a final appraisal inspection, a “clear endorsement” from the title company, a final survey if required, homeowner’s insurance policy, and any other documentation as may be required for your particular loan.

1. SITE SELECTION If you have not already selected and purchased your lot, location is one of the most important factors to consider. There are realtors who specialize in finished lots as well as developers who sell finished lots. Many builders also have lots in inventory. A current survey of the property indicating all easements and rights of way will be required for closing. 2. PLANNING MEETING WITH CRV HOMES AND ARCHITECT Building the custom home begins several months before you break ground. You may start by meeting with CRV Homes or your own architect. CRV Homes has architects on staff at no addeitional charge to you. Keep in mind that each plays an integral role in the process and will work together to help make your vision a reality. 3. MEET WITH THE LENDER It’s never too early to meet with your construction lender. A construction lending specialist can help in planning for your future investment. If you need assistance with this - please let us know. 4. LOAN CLOSING You must have an adequate down payment or equity at the time of closing. Equity is defined as cash paid toward the lot or construction costs, both hard and soft. 5. UP TO 12 MONTH CONSTRUCTION PHASE Enjoy a construction phase of up to 12 months with interest-only payments or fully deferred payments while CRV Homes completes your new home. You will be charged interest only on the funds disbursed. The interest-only construction phase of your financing may continue past your home’s completion and your move-in, up to 12 months from loan closing for most loans. 6. MOVE IN! Once construction is complete you may move in. If your home is completed early you may opt to continue making interest-only payments through the end of the construction period or you may modify your loan to begin making permanent loan payments for most loan programs.

If you currently own a home, you do not have to sell it before you start a new one. Close on the Single Close Loan and have up to 12 months to sell or lease your current home prior to loan modification. No need to move twice!

The Single Close Loans normally allows for modification options, which is available upon completion of construction of your home, or up to 12 months after loan closing.

Build a New Home and Skip The Heartache of Used Homes Bidding Wars You’ve probably heard people say that the housing market is hot right now, and there is not a lot of existing homes available. Lots of people are looking to buy a home right now and that means it’s a seller’s market. But what does that mean for homebuyers? Unfortunately, it often means competing with other buyers who might be putting down offers far more tempting than yours. It’s hard to compete in a market like this, which just adds to the stress of buying a home. There is, however, another option. And no, we don’t mean just waiting until the market cools down. We’re talking about buying a newly constructed home. There are so many pros to working with a builder, and that’s why we put this list together! Here are a few of the reasons you should consider building a new home over buying a home. 1. Less Heartbreak, More Celebrating Imagine this: You find a dream home on the market. It’s got that open front porch you’ve always wanted, more than enough bedrooms, and well appointed finishes. You put an offer in and hold your breath. Before 24 hours are up, the sellers have twenty offers higher than your bid. You’ve lost another home. Yeah, that sounds pretty devastating. In today’s market, you may go through that heartbreak half a dozen times (or more, if we’re being honest). On the other hand, opting to build a home means there’s no competition. Nobody’s going to swoop in at the last minute with an insane bid and snatch your perfect home away. Instead, you can take your time to plan out a home that fits your family’s needs without the rush. 2. The Design Can Fit YOU (Instead of the Other Way Around) Buying a home is all about making compromises. The houses with spacious yards might have cramped kitchens or not enough bedrooms. Or they might have too-low ceilings. You get the point. When you buy a used home, you must weigh your wants and find a home that fits as many as possible. But when you build a new home? The world is basically your oyster. You can choose the layout to include that walk-in closet you’ve always dreamed of, the spacious master bathroom, and the ideal kitchen. You need to be mindful of your budget, but that’s about it. Design your home to fit your family. 3. Avoid Move-In Reno Projects If you’ve bought a home in the past, you know about the inevitable move-in projects. Right after an exhausting week of packing and moving, you need to start painting or planning to swap out the outdated bathroom tile. With all the unpacking chaos, trips to the hardware store, and late nights, moving can feel like a never-ending blur. It takes a while to finally take a breath and enjoy the new space. Say goodbye to all of that when you build a home. You will be able to choose all of that from the start: cabinet style, flooring, windows, wall colors, you name it. It’s a lot of work, sure, but it’s exciting to build your home from the ground up. And you’ll have a lot more fun imagining your gorgeous new countertops than if you were embarking on a home improvement project. 4. It’s a Balancing Act It’s necessary for us to talk about the other side of building a home. Some of the common arguments against buying brand new are cost and time. First of all, it’s usually less expensive to build a house than to buy it in the long run, so let’s dispense that myth right now. Second of all, yes. It takes longer to build a home than buying one. But the benefits of building a house from scratch designed to fit your family – and budget – is often enough to offset that time. When the housing market is hot, like it is right now, don’t spend time and energy bidding against dozens of people. Instead, consider building your home. No competition, no surprises, no compromises. Just a brand-new dream home for you and your family.

Working with one of our preferred lenders can expedite the process and make it easier for you. CRV Homes’ preferred lender(s), specializes in single close construction loans. This section is a valuable resource for anyone planning to build a custom home. It provides information on the financing process, a helpful glossary and a timeline to help you plan your project. How you finance the construction of your new home is one of the most important things to consider. Our perferred lenders are leaders in home construction lending, specializing in Single Close Construction Loans. They are well known for our exceptional customer service, and they understand the needs of both the you as the home buyer and us as your builder. Our perferred lenders Single Close Construction Loan takes you from groundbreaking to move-in, in one easy process. If you decide to work with one of our lenders, you will be working with construction loan specialists who are able to answer all of our questions so that your home construction keeps moving smoothly with no surprises along the way. We offier through our lenders a Single Close Loan designed to build a primary residence. Single Close means one loan – start to finish. You sign one set of loan documents that covers both the interim construction phase and the permanent loan. This eliminates the need for multiple loans to get into your new home. With a single loan, you can purchase the land for your home and complete the construction. When construction is complete, the loan converts to a permanent mortgage loan saving considerable time and money. The construction period is normally up to 12 months to allow time to build the new home and sell the existing home. There are a number of costs that go into building a new home: LAND VALUE You may purchase the land you have under contract at closing with proceeds from the Single Close Loan, or you may have already purchased the land and have a loan to be paid off with proceeds from the Single Close Loan. Or, you may own the land free and clear. SOFT COSTS Permit fees, engineering fees, architectural fees and other costs associated with building the home, but not directly part of the actual construction costs. HARD COSTS The tangible costs associated with the actual construction of the home. This includes materials and labor costs. ALLOWANCES Sums included in the construction budget for items to be selected in the future, such as flooring, cabinetry. CONTINGENCY RESERVE A Contingency Account is recommended on all contracts to cover change orders or upgrades. Differences between budget allowances and actual costs are usually handled through change orders. TOTAL COSTS The total cost consists of all of the above. MAXIMUM LOAN AMOUNT You may borrow up to the maximum loan amount as figured from the lesser of the appraised value or the actual cost (lot plus construction costs). LOT EQUITY The difference between the appraised land value and the loan to be paid off on the land, if any, will be the lot equity. The lot equity will be a credit toward the required down payment, if any. The Single Close Loan process is very similar to a standard purchase or refinance transaction. But unlike a purchase transaction for an existing home, the Single Close Loan involves determining the value of a home that is not yet completed. To assist the appraiser and the lender in determining future value, information must be provided on the planned home, such as what materials will be used and the total cost to complete the project. FINAL PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS These consist of a legible set of architectural drawings (building plans). They must include a floor plan showing all dimensions and outside elevations (drawings of the exterior). In addition, CRV Homes will provide a detailed description of the materials to be used in construction of the home; for example, wood shingle or lightweight tile roofing; brick or stucco exterior. This information will be provided to the appraiser who will determine value, subject to completion per plans and specifications. CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT This is the agreement between you and CRV Homes that details the planned construction project, the agreed upon cost and the construction term to complete the project. The final plans and specifications should be an attachment to the construction contract. DETAILED LINE ITEM COST BREAKDOWN/DRAW SCHEDULE This schedule is prepared by CRV Homes and includes all costs associated with the construction. The total will match the Construction Contract total. The Draw Schedule is used to advance funds to the builder as work is completed. BUILDER PROFILE This form requires information that is supplied by CRV Homes and is used solely for the benefit of the lending company to determine eligibility for their program. Selection of the builder is the exclusive, independent decision of the borrower but CRV Homes is already registered as a qualified builder with many lenders. Draw disbursements or progress payments are made on a work-completed basis and occur over a period of time as the work progresses. CRV Homes will submit draw requests directly to the lender, itemizing the work completed and the amount requested for payment. The percentage of work completed is determined by an independent third-party inspection service. CRV Homes will designate a construction bank account at a financial institution and disbursements will be wired directly to that account after receipt of the inspection report. As a convenience to you, a copy of the disbursement statement may be sent to you either via email or regular mail each time CRV Homes makes a draw. This statement indicates the amount of funds disbursed and funds remaining on the project. INITIAL DISBURSEMENT The initial disbursement at closing includes the payoff of the lot (if applicable) less your down payment (Initial Cash Deposit to CRV Homes). Also, a startup draw may be disbursed immediately after closing is finalized to get the construction process moving forward. DEPOSITS The cost for special order items may be funded up to 50% of the line item on the draw schedule, when accompanied by a request from CRV Homes together with supporting invoices. FINAL DRAW The final draw to the CRV Homes will be paid upon completion of construction and receipt by the lender of a final appraisal inspection, a “clear endorsement” from the title company, a final survey if required, homeowner’s insurance policy, and any other documentation as may be required for your particular loan. CONSTRUCTION TIME LINE 1. SITE SELECTION If you have not already selected and purchased your lot, location is one of the most important factors to consider. There are realtors who specialize in finished lots as well as developers who sell finished lots. Many builders also have lots in inventory. A current survey of the property indicating all easements and rights of way will be required for closing. 2. PLANNING MEETING WITH CRV HOMES AND ARCHITECT Building the custom home begins several months before you break ground. You may start by meeting with CRV Homes or your own architect. CRV Homes has architects on staff at no addeitional charge to you. Keep in mind that each plays an integral role in the process and will work together to help make your vision a reality. 3. MEET WITH THE LENDER It’s never too early to meet with your construction lender. A construction lending specialist can help in planning for your future investment. If you need assistance with this - please let us know. 4. LOAN CLOSING You must have an adequate down payment or equity at the time of closing. Equity is defined as cash paid toward the lot or construction costs, both hard and soft. 5. UP TO 12 MONTH CONSTRUCTION PHASE Enjoy a construction phase of up to 12 months with interest-only payments or fully deferred payments while CRV Homes completes your new home. You will be charged interest only on the funds disbursed. The interest-only construction phase of your financing may continue past your home’s completion and your move-in, up to 12 months from loan closing for most loans. 6. MOVE IN! Once construction is complete you may move in. If your home is completed early you may opt to continue making interest-only payments through the end of the construction period or you may modify your loan to begin making permanent loan payments for most loan programs. If you currently own a home, you do not have to sell it before you start a new one. Close on the Single Close Loan and have up to 12 months to sell or lease your current home prior to loan modification. No need to move twice! The Single Close Loans normally allows for modification options, which is available upon completion of construction of your home, or up to 12 months after loan closing.
