Start Building Your Dream Home, Today!

Construction Loan Financing Program

Build your home exactly how you want with a home construction loan from Sawyer Savings Bank.

Do you have a specific vision for how you want your home to look? Or, maybe your home search just hasn’t led you to the right home to meet the needs of your family.

Finding the perfect house can be a fun yet challenging endeavor. With so many factors to consider while house hunting in the Hudson Valley – including house style, size and location, just to name a few – sometimes people don’t know where to even start.

Don’t feel like giving an inch on your wants and needs? Fear not, because if your perfect home isn’t available (or doesn’t even exist), you can build a new one that will check all your boxes.

At Sawyer Savings Bank, our construction loans aren’t just limited to stick built! We also offer construction loans for Modular, Log or Kit homes, Panelized, Doublewide Manufactured homes, and, if your proposed home is not listed here, just ask!!!

We work with you every step of the way, from initial site survey’s, to ground breaking, and to when it’s time to move in. We are proud to provide flexible disbursement schedules that are very contractor/builder friendly to keep the process of constructing your new dream home on schedule and on track.
