Important dates for Builders
Countrywide Home Loans, a division of Countrywide Bank, FSB, has created comprehensive and innovative financing programs specifically for you, the home builder.
BARRIERS TO HOMEOWNERSHIP? COUNTRYWIDE HAS THE ANSWER!
When flexibility and affordability are issues for your customers, offer them the House America Loan. Ask how this product gives your customers more opportunities for homeownership.
PROJECT APPROVALS MADE EASIER
Countrywide's exclusive Project Approval Department eases or reduces government red tape for Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, VA, and FHA project approvals. Your buyers can be approved faster, so you can move inventory faster. If you are a consumer interested in mortgage options at Countrywide click here.
FAST APPROVALS
Countrywide can pre-approve your buyers at the time of application so you know immediately if they are qualified.*
CONSTRUCTION-TO-PERMANENT FINANCING
Our One Time Close Loan means one application, one set of documents and one close for your qualified buyers. The buyer's permanent financing closes prior to construction, so there's no risk the buyer won't qualify when construction is complete.***
