Questions
Common questions, straight answers.
Can I buy and rebuild with one loan?
Sometimes. Some lenders will finance the purchase and the construction together; others prefer separate loans. It depends on the plans, costs and your borrowing capacity.
Will the lender value my home as if rebuilt?
For the construction stage, lenders usually value the finished home based on the plans and contract. For the purchase alone, they value what’s there now.
