Learning About Land Loans

Land loans are a type of financing option used to purchase raw land for building a home, farming, hunting, recreation, or other purposes. In Oklahoma, land loans are useful for individuals and businesses looking to purchase and develop land. However, it is important to understand the different types of land loans available before making a decision.

Raw land loans: These loans are used to purchase undeveloped land without any existing structures or improvements.

Lot loans: Lot loans are similar to raw land loans, but are typically used to finance the purchase of a single residential lot in a developed subdivision.

Construction loans: These loans are used to finance the construction of a new home on a piece of land. The loan is typically disbursed in stages as the construction progresses.

Agricultural loans: These loans are used to purchase or refinance farmland or agricultural properties. They are typically used by farmers, ranchers, and other agricultural businesses. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offers an assortment of subsidized loans with minimal requirements and advantageous terms.

Commercial land loans: Commercial land loans are used to purchase land for commercial development, such as retail centers, office buildings, or industrial parks.

Equity loans: Equity loans allow borrowers to borrow against the equity they have in a piece of land they already own. These loans are typically used for things like home improvements or other personal expenses.
