What are lot loans?

A lot loan is a mortgage secured by land with the intention of building a residence. Once a house is built and suitable for occupancy, a permanent mortgage loan replaces the lot and construction financing. Our lot loans are not eligible for “raw land” purchases considered unsuitable for residential development.

 

What is considered a personal lot?

A personal lot is intended for residential development and is likely to include at least some of the following: a building permit, appropriate zoning, a survey report showing the land boundaries, access across public roads, rights to access through a permanent easement, sewer access or septic system, utilities on-site, nearby or a viable option of providing a private alternative for water, electricity and gas.

 

How does lot loan financing work?

The down payment for a lot is typically 25% of the purchase price. We offer up to 75% financing on approved credit with an adjustable rate loan that is fixed for the first 3 years and amortizes over 15 years to keep your payments affordable.
