What Is a Self-Build Construction Loan?

A self-build construction loan is designed for borrowers who want to manage the construction of their new home themselves, rather than hiring a general contractor to handle the entire project. With this type of loan, you work directly with builders and subcontractors, and take responsibility for coordinating and managing the overall process.
