THE TRANSACTIONAL WAY
You ask for a land loan. You get a land loan.
Six months later you come back for the construction loan to build the house. Now you are told that because you have the land loan, you cannot afford to build on it. The plan stalls and the land sits there.
THE WAY WE DO IT
You ask for a land loan. We ask what you plan to build.
If you have plans, we submit the building pre-approval at the same time as the land loan. The whole project is checked for serviceability before you commit to the block, so the future part of the plan can actually happen.
The same thinking runs through the annual reviews. Rates and lender policies move, so we look at every loan we have written each year to check the features and the rate still suit you. Most of our new work comes from people we have already helped telling somebody else, so keeping your loan right is the marketing budget.
