One-Close Program
Land/Home Financial Services, Inc. Modular Housing Construction-to-Permanent Mortgage Program saves the mortgage customer and you, time and money. Upon completion, the loan modifies into the permanent mortgage. The customer may choose several permanent mortgage options, including ARM programs and 30 or 15 year fixed programs.

  • The mortgage customer has the option of several different take out loans.
  • The mortgage customer has a 180-day approval commitment not the standard 120 days that other mortgage companies use.
