Luminate Bank Interim Renovation Loan
Can I Build a Swimming Pool?
Yes. New swimming pool construction is an eligible improvement under this program.
The Luminate Bank Interim Renovation Loan matrix lists new swimming pools among eligible repairs — alongside structural work, foundation repairs, tear-down and rebuild, mold and lead remediation, and appliance replacement.
That matters because many permanent renovation mortgages restrict recreational or luxury upgrades. If your project includes a pool as part of a larger rehab — or as a primary improvement meeting the $50,000 minimum repair amount — this interim product can finance the work through escrowed construction draws.
Ryan and Steve help you structure the scope, contractor, permits, and draw schedule so pool construction stays on track within the 15-month construction period.
Same short-term interest-only structure as other major renovations — with draws tied to completed work and inspections.
