You’re likely familiar with traditional mortgages used to purchase a home, but have you ever heard of a lot loan mortgage? These loans can help finance the purchase of a plot of land and they have several unique features that make them a great option if you’re looking to build in the future.
One of the great things about lot loans are the rates we offer. At Rural 1st, we base your loan terms on how much you want to put down—for example, we offer a 15-year term with as little as 15% down*. And since there are no balloons or floating interest, your payments will remain constant throughout the entire term. This makes lot loans a predictable and straightforward option.
Another great feature of these loans is that they can also be used to finance property improvements such as barns, water, roads, electricity and so on. We can include the cost of improvements in new lot loans or do a second loan to finance the improvements if you already have a lot loan.
