What percent do you have to put down for a construction loan?
At Interra we offer one-time close construction loan products. 30 year and ARM loans require a minimum of 10% equity. Other mortgage loans for 10, 15 and 20 year fixed rate require a minimum of 5% equity down. This amount can be satisfied with cash at closing, but also by the equity in the land value if already owned by the member.
What is the lowest down payment for a conventional mortgage?
Conventional lending standard requirement for down payment of a mortgage is 5% of the purchase price. There is a special program (Home Ready) that will allow for a down payment of only 3%, but the program has underwriting rules regarding First Time Buyers and income limitations to qualify. An Interra mortgage loan originator will be able to explain the differences and help to place you into the best loan option.
