Self-Build Mortgages

Ever dreamt of building your own home, I am sure we all have, a self-build mortgage is similar to a residential mortgage in the way you apply for it, but unlike a home purchase where the money is released in one lump sum, self-build mortgages are released in tranches or stages throughout the process, these stages will often be signed off by a surveyor. There are some lenders who will make payments in advance, but they tend to be rarer.
