Step 2 • Financing & Budget

Make the numbers work — without surprises.

Cash is easiest for speed and simplicity. Prefer to finance? Choose unsecured (Express/Renofi) or a traditional mortgage. We’ll give you clear, line‑item pricing and walk you through exactly what to expect.

How Financing Works

2) Get matched

Our partner routes your request to financing sources that may fit your project.

3) Review offers

See lender terms and repayment details. Ask questions before you decide.

4) Move forward

If approved and you accept an offer, we’ll coordinate build & delivery.
