Financing construction project without an income?

[Steve A.]

We're looking at options for financing building a new home in the Seattle area.  

Some points which may be helpful

• I'm not currently employed
• We own the property we are building on w/o any mortgage 
• We also have about 450k of equity in our primary residence

My calls this week shopping for a HELOC all want income confirmation, so not looking like a good option.

What are your recommendations on financing a rebuild? We own the property outright and need financing on the construction.

Thanks!
