One-Time Close (OTC) Construction Loan Email

(Manual)

We’ve added two new One-Time Close (OTC) construction loan email options, one buyer-facing and one builder-facing, so you can tailor the conversation to your audience.
 
Both emails clearly explain how an OTC loan combines construction financing and the permanent mortgage into one streamlined loan, helping eliminate re-qualification, second closings, and unnecessary delays. They also reinforce Highlands’ construction lending approach, including upfront buyer prequalification, a dedicated construction team, and digital draw management to keep projects moving.
 
You’ll find additional refreshed OTC content highlighted in the ‘What’s New’ section below.
