Frequently Asked Questions
Residential Lot / Land Loans
What is a residential land loan?
A residential land loan — also called a residential lot loan — is financing to purchase land zoned for residential use. Unlike a construction loan, it covers the land purchase only. You can build later when you’re ready.
Can I get a lot loan with bad credit?
Yes. Normandy offers residential lot financing to borrowers with excellent to less than perfect credit. No minimum FICO is required, though lower scores may affect the loan-to-value ratio considered.
Is there a minimum or maximum acreage requirement?
No. Normandy’s vacant land financing program has no minimum acreage requirement and no maximum limitations on lot size.
Can I later convert to a construction loan?
Yes. Normandy offers construction financing as well — so your lot financing for home construction can transition to a full build loan when you’re ready to start.
What income documentation is required?
Limited income documentation is available at 50% loan-to-value or less. Full documentation may be required for higher LTV requests.
