Land Financing Mortgage

What Is A Land Financing Mortgage?
A land loan is a specialized type of loan that provides you with the funds needed to purchase a piece of land on which you can build. However, it can be more challenging to qualify for a land loan compared to a traditional mortgage. This is due to the fact that lenders have a harder time reselling undeveloped land compared to developed property such as a house. As a result, land loans typically come with higher interest rates and require larger down payments. It is important to keep in mind that although undeveloped land may have a lower initial cost compared to developed land, securing financing for it can be more challenging.
Types Of Land Financing Mortgage
- Raw land undeveloped land - There is no water, power, sewage or roads. It may be cheaper to purchase but might cost you more in the long run with loan payments. This is the riskiest option.
- A lender will look for a strong credit history as well as a detailed building plan.
- Unimproved Land - this land still does not have basic components such as water and power but may have a road. This is considered a step up from raw land.
- Improved land - a piece of land that is ready or near ready to be developed. This is the most expensive type of land to purchase.
