Land and Construction Loans

You’ve got a great idea for a new development project, but you don’t have the funds to get it off the ground. You start searching for land and construction loans, but it can be a long and difficult process, especially when it comes to searching for a lender with the right offers for your needs.

When it comes to Funding, you’ll no longer experience these difficulties, as we are a trusted lender for development loans. We offer land and construction loans that you can use for different aspects of a property project, including renovations, home builds, development projects, and the like. 

What does a construction loan include?

Land and construction loans are short-term loans used to finance the building or renovation of a property. The loan is typically used to cover the costs of materials, labour, and land. Construction loans may also cover the cost of drafting plans, securing permits, professional fees, and even permanent fixtures like landscaping.

At Funding, we offer loans ranging from $20,000 to $10 million secured against Australian real estate, and our loan tenures range from one to thirty-six months. Our typical loan-to-value ratio (LVR) is 65% to 70% of the property value, depending on the location and type of security property. We also accept residential and commercial properties as well as vacant land. 

With these terms, you can apply for an amount that can cover the expected expenses of your property development and even more.

If you’re looking for a loan provider with fast approval times, Funding is one of the best options out there. Once you sign our loan documents, we can provide you with your settlement within three to five days, so you can get started with construction as soon as possible – there’s no need to wait for weeks just to get approved for your land and construction loans.

What are the eligibility requirements for a construction loan?

The eligibility requirements for a construction loan differ between loan providers. However, most lenders require the following: good credit standing, stable income backed by proof of income, a down payment for construction costs, and more.

The basic eligibility criteria for our borrowers at Funding are as follows: All potential borrowers must have sound real estate to put up as loan security, the ability to meet their repayments promptly, and a strong repayment strategy to exit the loan at the end of the term.

At Funding, we try to create a hassle-free loan experience, and that includes veering more towards providing fast, straightforward, and flexible land and construction loans for our clients, whether they are individuals, companies, or trusts.

Are construction loans expensive?

Whether or not land and construction loans are expensive depends on your loan terms and your loan principal. As with any type of loan, construction loans come with different rates and fees that you have to be aware of. Different loan providers charge different rates, which is why it is important to choose a lender that is upfront and transparent about associated costs.
