Land Loan, explained
What is a land loan?
A land loan is financing secured by land, used to buy it or refinance it. Lot loans and unimproved land loans are common names for loans on land with no significant buildings. Because land produces no income by itself, lenders focus on its value, what it can be used for and how the loan will be repaid.
Do you offer 100% financing or bad-credit land loans?
No. We lend up to up to 70% LTV, so a down payment of at least 30% is typical, and our minimum credit score is 680. Borrowers who cannot meet those terms are usually better served by seller financing or a local lender.
What can I use a land loan for?
Borrowers use land loans to buy land, refinance an existing loan, take cash out of land they own, buy farmland or ranch property, and move into construction. Eligible deals include opportunity purchases, quick closings, farm expansions and recreational land.
How fast can you close?
Funding can take as few as 14 days, depending on how quickly the appraisal, title and other reports are completed and on the complexity of the deal.
What credit score do I need?
What do I need to apply?
- Property address, acreage and parcel numbers.
- Purchase contract or existing loan statement.
- Zoning, current use and your plan for the land.
- Entity documents and ownership details.
- Credit information (minimum score 680)
