Price

What drives the cost of construction loans in Clarkston

  • Total project cost and your down payment or land equity
  • One-time close construction-to-permanent versus two closings
  • Builder experience and the detail of the budget
  • Credit score, income and reserves for delays
  • Build length and interest paid on drawn funds
  • Inspection, title update and draw fees
  • Rate lock options for the permanent phase
  • The age of the home: the typical Clarkston home was built around 1957, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Clarkston

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Clarkston was built around 1957. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Older plumbing and sewer lines

55% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.

Permits: check with the Clarkston building department before work starts.
