Building New with Danny & Miles: Lender Q&A
Building New with Danny & Miles: Lender Q&A
One of the most important (and sometimes intimidating) elements of building your own dream home is figuring out your financing. From interest rates to debt-to-income ratios, financing can be a complicated, multi-faceted journey filled with calculations, loan options, and fine details. Eastbrook Homes takes the guesswork out of the financing process by connecting our homebuyers to professional, preferred lending partners throughout West Michigan and the Greater Lansing Area. Our preferred lenders partner with you to ensure you have all the information you need to choose the best financing option for your needs.
Eastbrook Homes homebuyers Danny and Miles recently completed the financing process for their custom-built Violet Home in Eastbrook Home’s Cook’s Crossing community. We had the chance to ask them a few questions about their lending experience, including any tips or words of advice for new homebuyers just beginning the process. Join us as they share the details and reasoning behind their lending choices.

Why did you choose LMCU?

What about Financing First made sense for you and Miles?
Miles and I wanted to lock down our interest rate during the construction period and for the life of the loan.
