a 95% loan to value for a land loan would be ok too by shahramuah77 from Honolulu, Hawaii. Sep 13th 2017
They don't exist.. If you are looking to do a construction loan, then you would need to either own the land already or have sufficient funds (typically 20% to 30%) to satisfy the construction loan's LTV (Loan to Value) requirements.. If you own the land already but it has a mortgage, then if there is sufficient equity to meet the requirement, you should be ok.. if you don't own any land, and you are looking for this 0 to 3.5% down construction to perm loan, then I can say with fairly certainty that it does not exist.. Construction loans are one of the most risky for lenders.. since they are committing to paying for the construction of a home over the next 6 to 12 months, all with the anticipation that you will be able to qualify up to a year later for a mortgage.. For this reason, most lenders who were doing construction loans around 2008, suspended all these loan products... right now, they are starting to make a comeback.. but you wont find one with 0 to 3.5% down.. nor will you find a land loan at 95%.. typically, land loans require 30% to 40% down.. I'm a preferred Lender with California and Arizona being my primary markets.
