When a homebuyer wants to purchase or refinance a house in need of repair or modernization, the homebuyer usually has to obtain financing first to purchase the dwelling; additional financing to do the rehabilitation construction; and a permanent mortgage when the work is completed to pay off the interim loans with a permanent mortgage. Often the interim financing (the acquisition and construction loans) involves relatively high interest rates and short amortization periods. The Section 203(k) program was designed to address this situation. The borrower can get just one mortgage loan, at a long-term fixed rate, to finance both the acquisition and the rehabilitation of the property. To provide funds for the rehabilitation, the mortgage amount is based on the projected value of the property with the work completed, taking into account the cost of the work.

Did you know ALL of Kauai is rural and qualifies for USDA 100% financing options? When you work your whole life to own a home, how do you protect that asset to leave it to your children when you pass on? There are benefits and risks to putting your property in the trust.

Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

homes that are difficult to sell.
• It is almost universally required on custom builds.

• Yes, however, this is not typical.
• The builder may take title, or he may simply add himself to title along with you.
22. BUILDER FINANCED CONSTRUCTION
(LAND)
• Can I go this route if I already own my own land?
• Yes, however, this is not typical.
• The builder may take title, or he may simply add himself to title along with you.
• If you do not own the land, then a purchase contract will be written which
includes the land and the to-be-built home.
25. BUILDER FINANCED CONSTRUCTION
(APPRAISAL)
• A “subject to” appraisal will be performed at the time of the initial underwriting.
• Appraisals are good for 120 days (180 days for VA).
• If the house is not completed within that time, either a “Recertification of Value” or a
new appraisal will be completed by the appraiser before the purchase can be
completed.

borrower retained ownership during the build – less common).
• Any standard purchase programs are allowed.

that the borrower has obtained to fund the construction of a new residence.” (Fannie)
36. BUYER FINANCED CONSTRUCTION
• Single-Closing Transactions (Fannie or Portfolio ARM’s)
• Stricter underwriting guidelines
• LTV is generally calculated using the lesser of appraised value and acquisition cost
• Two-Closing Transactions
• More flexible underwriting guidelines
• LTV is generally calculated using appraised value and equity is considered towards down-
payment
The main difference between the two transactions is the type of documents that are signed at
conversion.
40. BUYER FINANCED CONSTRUCTION
(LAND)
• Do I have to own my land already? No
• If you own the land free and clear, it will become a part of the project, and the equity
will act as all or part of your down-payment.

• If you own the land but have a lien, the lien will be paid off as the first draw at the
time of the construction loan closing, and any remaining equity will act as all or part of
your down-payment.

• Do I have to own my land already? No
• If you own the land free and clear, it will become a part of the project, and the equity
will act as all or part of your down-payment.
• If you own the land but have a lien, the lien will be paid off as the first draw at the
time of the construction loan closing, and any remaining equity will act as all or part of
your down-payment.
• If you do not own the land, the land will be purchased with the first draw at the time
of the construction loan closing.

• Appraisals are good for 120 days (180 days for VA).

new appraisal will be completed by the appraiser. (VA exception)

• Because the loan documents specify the terms of the permanent financing, the
construction loan will automatically convert to a permanent long-term mortgage
upon completion of the construction.
54. BUYER FINANCED CONSTRUCTION
(SINGLE-CLOSING TRANSACTIONS)
• REQUALIFICATION (Fannie Mae) -- If the loan closes and draws over 70% LTV, the
loan will have to requalify at the end of construction per FNMA. Credit will be re-
pulled and all new bank statements, paystubs, etc. will be needed as well as a new
VOE (Verification of Employment). Once this process is completed and approved
the loan will be modified into the permanent loan.

The LTV is calculated as follows:
• Purchase transaction – using the lesser of the “subject to” appraised value or acquisition
cost
• Limited cash-out refinance transaction – using the “subject to” appraised value

FHA Special Considerations
• The LTV is calculated using the lesser of the “subject to” appraised value or
acquisition cost.
• The standard FHA purchase LTV limit of 96.5% is generally followed.
• On a positive note, the closing costs are considered part of the acquisition
cost and can be rolled into the loan if the appraisal allows.
69. BUYER FINANCED CONSTRUCTION
(TWO-CLOSING TRANSACTIONS)
VA Special Considerations
• The loan is qualified as a standard VA Cash-out refinance transaction.
• Many investors limit these transactions to 90% LTV.
• VA does not allow a “subject to” appraisal to be ordered on a refinance
transaction until the house is roughly 95% complete.
• This means that there will always be a second appraisal, and the VA appraiser will
inevitably be a different individual than the person who completed the original
appraisal.

Communication is the key to a successful transaction!
My goal is not make you turn you into a loan officer.
Many of the things I’m going to present to you today, there will be no need for you to remember.
I want you to have a high level view of the possibilities so you are comfortable presenting new construction as an option.
There is always an exception to the rule in lending.
Somehow the construction of the home has to be paid for.
We are going to look a little more closely at each of these options.
We will discuss

Appraisals
Permanent Loan Options
It is important to note that WE WILL NOT BE APPRAISING THE LAND.
