Dreaming of building your perfect home from the ground up? With the right plan, right team, and the right financing partner—like BankSouth Mortgage—you can turn that empty lot into the home you’ve always wanted.
Here’s how the journey from dirt to dreams unfolds:
1. Dream It
Start with your vision. From layout to lighting, what does your dream home feel like? Whether you’re visualizing a modern farmhouse or a classic Southern charmer, we help you translate your dreams into a plan.
2. Finance It Smart
Our Construction-to-Permanent (C2P) Loan keeps things simple: one application, one closing, one smart loan. It covers your construction phase and automatically converts to your mortgage—so you don’t have to start over halfway through.
3. Pick the Perfect Lot
Already have a parcel of land? Awesome. Still searching? We can connect you with local real estate pros and help find a lot that fits your lifestyle and vision.
4. Build It Your Way
This is where the magic happens! You’ll collaborate with your builder to design every detail of your home. From open-concept kitchens to spa-inspired bathrooms—we’re here to support you.
5. Move In & Celebrate
Once the build is complete, your loan becomes your mortgage with no second closing required. You just move in and start living the life you imagined.
