Long-term rate locks up to 360 days with Builder Rate Lock Advantage®

Bank of America doesn’t offer construction financing for homebuyers, but we do offer some of the most competitive terms for permanent financing on new construction (after home completion). Our ability to lock in an interest rate for up to 360 days1 in advance of completion means buyers can run their construction financing and permanent loan applications concurrently, taking the guesswork out of future interest rates. Buyers can secure their permanent interest rate now through our Builder Rate Lock Advantage® program. Plus, there's a one-time option to relock to a lower interest rate or use discount points, or both.2
