We offer loans to housing associations that are customers of Arion Bank for construction work on properties and land. During the construction period, an overdraft facility is set up on the housing association's account.
Upon completion of the work, the overdraft loan is converted into a bond loan.
For larger construction projects, it is necessary for the housing association to have a supervisor who monitors the construction work and signs off on the invoice upon completion. The maximum loan term for construction loans in the form of bonds is 4 years.
