Construction Loan - Cedar Park Texas Living

Obtaining a Construction Loan, when building on your own lot, can be tricky. When building with a large production builder in a neighborhood, the cost of the lot and the house is rolled into the purchase price. The builder carries the cost of the build and you purchase the completed home. However, if you want to buy land or a lot to build a custom home with a local, independent builder, that process requires a different loan and purchase process.

Here is a local lender who can help you navigate the Construction Loan process when buying land and building a home.

I connected with Christina to “just look around” Cedar Park because we were thinking of moving here from Florida “some day.” She showed me several places and very quickly homed in on what my family needed. She found the perfect place and quickly “some day” became NOW. As someone else mentioned, even though she is working with several clients at the same time, Christina made me feel like I was her #1 priority - and I’ll bet the all those other clients felt the same way. Christina helped us understand local real estate practices, gave practical and insightful advice during the price negotiations, and recommended excellent recommendations on vendors to use once closed. I highly recommend Christina!

We highly recommend Christina! When it came to finding the ideal property for us, Christina went above and beyond and demonstrated 100% commitment to finding the right home to fit our lifestyle needs and timeline restrictions. Her area and market knowledge and client-centered attitude won us over-- and we felt like we were in competent and caring hands throughout the whole process. Christina listened to us; explained the stages all the way; offered suggestions; was easy to understand; and resolutely negotiated on our behalf to ensure overall satisfaction. To sum up our experience: Christina was very client-centered, professional, friendly, thorough, diligent, patient, kind, and very accommodating! We will definitely contact Christina again if we need realtor services in the future!

I was moving from LA to Austin, so trying to find a place to live long distance can be challenging. Thankfully, Christina Legrand was incredibly easy to work with. She was kind, prompt, and very communicative. I don’t know if I could have done this without her. I just moved into a beautiful home in my price range today and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you!

Not enough words to describe the pleasant experience we had with Christina Legrand finding our home. Her knowledge attention to detail thoughtfulness is beyond words. Being that we did not live in the area, she helped us through every process to get our home closed smoothly.

Christina Legrand is in a league of her own when it comes to realtors and snake wranglers. (More on that last part later!) I was out of state, when I needed to find a realtor to sell my Cedar Park home. But who? Substantive reviews for SELLING your home seemed scarce. I interviewed 4 Texas realtors. I chose Christina because of her immediate attention to my situation, with a detailed, organized, WRITTEN approach that got the sale moving before I even met her! Later, like Robert Frost, I would say, I chose Christina Legrand and "that has made all the difference." Christina is a Phi Beta Kappa in realty: professional, attentive, efficient, responsive and smart. That she is also inordinately compassionate and committed to her client, is striking. She takes pride in the quality of her work, ENJOYS helping her clients get the most successful outcome .As a bonus Christina is well educated, experienced, an enjoyable colleague for your venture. Her style is to quietly say, or text, , "Here is something you might consider.". No pressure, but you have just been given an excellent tip! When you raise a question, you get an immediate well researched answer, not fluff. There's also her writing. Read some of her exceptionally written property descriptions. Imagine how she will portray yours! My luck in choosing Christina soon became obvious. As I began to drag behind on the packing, I turned to see Christina taping up boxes! She was packing the kitchen ! ..the paintings! the living room! She and her team sold and donated furnishings for me. Organized for the moving truck! Unheard of. As I was heading to the airport, we suddenly discovered water damage in the wall! Well connected, Christina found all the best vendors for repairs and restoration. Then, while I remained out of state (!), she closely supervised , upheld high standards for repair, and for the integrity of the home sale. A huge unexpected burden over several months for her, which she accepted with grace, and I am deeply grateful. Because of her integrity, I'd have confidence purchasing any home that Christina represents. And I would want her as my Buyer's agent.. Snake wrangling? Late one evening I entered the garage, and watched a large snake at the back wall, slithering into my boxes of stored stuff. No snake relocator was available. .But the following morning, "Ding Dong"! Surprise! Christina stood at my door, holding up her Western boots. "I brought my snake boots!" , she announced with a laugh, and led the way to the garage. When you work with Christina, you respect and admire her, and sometimes you adore her. She's a saint. Call her. You're lucky she's out there.

Our son headed out to college so it was time for us to downsize in size of home & mortgage. Christina had our best interest in mind every step of the way. She always kept us on track of our goals. She was super patient. Christina always made us feel like we were her priority even when she was working with other clients. She went above & beyond so many times. She successfully found us a home that met all of our goals in a fantastic neighborhood. Even after her work was completed she checked in on us & offered help. Christina knows her stuff along with today's crazy real estate market. She was a pleasure to work with and is an all around wonderful person. She is highly recommended.

Christina was so great and very patient with us. We had some challenges but, She always fought for us and helped us finally find the perfect house during this crazy market! She has such a great sense of humor which I loved about her and a very down to earth personality. Very professional and knowledgeable about the area. I will highly recommend her to friends, family and anyone that needs guidance and support through this process!

Christina and team were exactly what you want. They made a stressful experience smooth and gave us the support that we absolutely needed. Christina and team gave great advice and was a major factor in my house selling. Without their expertise and support the process would not have been as smooth as it was. I would absolutely work with them again.
