Check with your CU or Bank of White Castle for Construction. Stand Alone, you may pay a bit more in fees, but you will save because:
1. GMFS is essentially a big broker and don't have the lowest rates.; never have. Just alot of commercials.
2. The banks take a risk with a one time close that rates will be headed on the right direction and that your credit and financial situation will not change during the construction period, so there is some risk factored into their rate as well.
3. With pricing the way it is, the only thing that will keep the economy from imploding is low rates. The Fed really can't raise them much or the whole house will fall down. So if you can get a commitment from a good builder and get it built quickly. You may possibly get a better rate than what GMFS is quoting you on a separate permanent loan.
4. Always look at rate because you generally will pay out a mortgage over time. Unless you agree to some exorbitant amount on fees, you should always be more focused on rate.
