Financing A Pool With A First Mortgage & Close Of Escrow

First mortgages are loans you take out to purchase and/or build your home. COE or close of escrow is when your lender allows your pool and landscape project to be rolled into the primary mortgage. The primary mortgage lender has the first lien on the property.

Benefits Of Financing A Pool With A First Mortgage & Close Of Escrow

  • Finance pool projects for up to 30 years with a fixed rate
  • Only one payment for both the mortgage and pool
  • Typically allows for the opportunity to refinance just 6 months after the loan closes
  • Interest accrued is tax deductible
  • Offers both the lowest interest rate and monthly payment for financing a pool

Mortgage Companies That Allow Pool Contracts In The First Mortgage

In our experience, most mortgage lenders will allow customers the ability of wrapping their pool project in with their home loan.

California Pools & Landscape has great working relationships with the following first mortgage lenders:

  • Wells Fargo
  • Homeowners Financial Group
  • Bell Bank

While they might not be the only lenders to offer this service, we continue to work with them as they provide excellent customer service and accommodate project timelines.

Financing A Pool With A Second Mortgage Or Home Equity Line Of Credit

A second mortgage uses the equity in your home to finance the pool project. It is a secondary loan to your primary mortgage. This is a loan option available for homeowners who have closed on the loan for their first mortgage and are living in the home.

Financing A Pool With An Unsecured Or Personal Loan

Unsecured loans are based on credit score, credit history, income, amount of debt, and other factors. Unlike a first or second mortgage, unsecured loans are approved without having collateral or an asset tied to it. These are also known as personal loans or signature loans.

What Do All Pool Loans Have In Common?

The loan types and terms are going to look different than other loans you may have taken out for a car or furniture. There are no gimmicks like, “no payment no interest for 12 months” that carry higher interest rates. Pool specific loans have lower rates with longer terms that keep the monthly payment very affordable. Keeping this in mind as you’re evaluating lenders will make your overall financing process more enjoyable. Compare all our pool loan programs today!
