spec home financing
A spec house is a home that is built on speculation, or includes plans to build a house without a pre-sale of the building. After the spec house is finished, the buyer puts it up for sale. With this type of financial arrangement, a builder can finance up to 90 percent of his project. He can also draw requests for money online at any time during the construction phase.

Banks can provide you with home builder spec home loans for multi-millions of dollars. Land equity and prepaid costs may also be used as a down payment for your spec deal. But the builder must have an average or better credit rating score and provide a 10 percent post-closing liquidity of the total amount. You must also have a 15 percent minimum gross profit margin to qualify. We also require that you have a certain number of years’ experience, or a co-signer with home-building experience.

Home builder spec home loans are available on the Internet, and most include a convenient application process. Users looking for financing for an upcoming building project can find a lender that will allow him to begin his payments after the construction has been completed.

Applicants can hold up to ten contracts at one time, enabling them to begin more than one construction project at a time, as long as he meets the other qualifications. The terms are normally 12, 15, or 18 months, giving the home builder plenty of time to complete the project and sell the speculative house. The total amount of home builder spec home loans a person can take out at one time may equal a sum of no more than 1.5 million dollars no matter how many houses they have being built.
