I just found this website. I am looking for commercial loans. I have a client that owns 42 acres , it is zoned agriculture. It is a great location , next to a school and subdivision. He is looking to refi at the highest LTV possible. He does plan on building homes in the future or possible selling off individual lots. The land currently has a 2 million loan on it. The value is 6.5 million. He has owned it for 1 yr. It is actually a corporation of 4 and they all have great credit and tons of assets, their worth is in the millions They also want to purchase another piece of land for 12 million. Any ideas? Thanks -- loanuniverse Dec 7 2005, 09:27 AM Post #2 Administrator Group: Admin Posts: 1,089 Joined: 23-September 02 Member No.: 1 Is the $152M per acre value an as is value as agricultural land? Or an speculative value assuming a rezoning? Is it supported by actual sales? If the value can be supported, I am sure someone can be found to lend at least 50%. Depending on the adjusted net worth of the individuals, maybe significantly more. Many lenders are avoiding land right now in my market unless there is an existing relationship with the developer. I know that I would feel uncomfortable recommending a land loan unless the investors are experienced. -- lelting Dec 14 2005, 10:48 PM Post #3 Full-Time Teller Group: Members Posts: 13 Joined: 13-November 05 Member No.: 971 I can help you with the 12 million dollar purchase>I have private investors that will fund at 100 LTV -- LenderBuddy Dec 15 2005, 10:55 AM Post #4 Head-Teller Group: Members Posts: 23 Joined: 11-November 05 From: San Francisco Member No.: 968 If there are crops growing on the land or the land is zoned agricultural then we are talking agricultural land loan and that is a different beast. I haven't worked on one of them in a while but you need to speak with someone who specializes in ag loans. FarmerMac is involved in those transactions and I believe the LTV can go as high as 70%. Good credit and strong financial position are required. Drop me a personal message and I'll forward you the contact information of a guy who specializes in agricultural loans.

Home Equity Conversion (HEC).

Home Equity Conversions: Reverse Mortgages Home Equity Conversions: Reverse Mortgages Authors: Celia Ray Hayhoe, Ph.D, CFP®, Family Resource Management Cooperative Extension Specialist and Stacey Williamson, Graduate Assistant; Virginia Tech Publication Number 354-025, Posted April 2004 Many senior adults are finding it hard to live on their fixed retirement incomes and are looking for ways to supplement those incomes. For some, the largest asset they own is their home, but they do not want to sell their home and move. For these individuals, there is an option called Home Equity Conversion (HEC). One type of home equity conversion is a reverse mortgage. The equity or cash value of the house is used to provide income to repay the loan. All reverse mortgage options are not the same. They have different eligibility requirements, income amounts, timing of payments, interest rates, and/or initial costs. Homeowners should compare the different options, keeping in mind their goals and needs. Advantages The value of your house, not your income, is used to determine eligibility. You can receive a lump sum, a line of credit, or a monthly amount, without having to make a monthly repayment. You do not have to sell your home and move, and can continue to live in the same familiar surroundings. You do not have to worry about losing your home to foreclosure since the payments are made out of your equity in the home, not from your income. The loan must be repaid when the house is no longer used as your personal residence. However, the lender can only look to the proceeds from the sale of the house for repayment. They cannot go to your heirs if the house sells for less than what was borrowed. Money can be used for any purpose. You must attend a free HECM/HUD approved counseling session to see if this type of mortgage is right for you. Disadvantages Interest for a reverse mortgage is compounded, and cannot be deducted on income taxes until you repay it. The income you receive decreases the equity in your home, and the equity may not be adequate for your future needs or for your estate. Interest rates and initial costs (application fees, points and closing costs) are usually higher for a reverse mortgage than for other equity loans. Income ends when you sell your home or no longer use it as a principal residence. Payments may affect Supplemental Security Income and Medicaid payments. You must attend a free HECM/HUD approved counseling session. This may add time to the process of obtaining a loan. You may need to pay off your existing mortgage out of the proceeds of your reverse mortgage. You will be required to maintain the house, pay the taxes, and carry property insurance. Eligibility You could be eligible if you own your own home, use the home as your principal residence, and are at least 62 years of age. You must also have adequate equity in the home. A lender looks at the equity in the home plus any expected appreciation or depreciation in the value of the home to calculate a base amount. The costs associated with any reverse mortgage loan (application fees, interest rates, closing costs, initial charges, sales commissions, and homeowner's insurance) also must be considered. All reverse mortgages currently available in Virginia require homeowner's insurance. The lender and the homeowner must work together to determine the type of payment, the payment amount, and the time period. This is determined not only by the calculations of the base amount by the lender, but also by keeping your goals and financial needs in mind. Income Income from a reverse mortgage is not taxable, and will not affect Medicare eligibility or benefits. But the added income can affect both Supplemental Security Income and Medicaid eligibility and benefits for Virginia residents. Confused? A home equity conversion is not a home equity loan! Home-equity loans require that a homeowner has enough income to pay back the loan, and the payments are made in monthly amounts. A home-equity loan would not work for the majority of senior adults who are living on limited fixed incomes and who could not afford a loan payment. Example A wide variety of loan options are available depending upon your age, the amount of equity available, the time period of the loan, and the way payments are disbursed. For example, Mary Jones, a 75-year-old widow whose home is her principal residence, is looking at a ten-year reverse mortgage that will provide her with additional monthly income of approximately $450. At the end of the ten years the monthly income payment will stop. But because her loan is through an insured lender (loans offered by HUD approved lenders have government guarantees), the loan will not have to be repaid until she sells the home, moves, or dies. Home Equity Conversion Checklist These questions can to help you determine if you are eligible for a home equity conversion (HEC). YES NO 1. Are you 62 years of age or older? _____ _____ 2. Is your mortgage paid off in full or nearly so? _____ _____ 3. Do you use your home as your primary residence? _____ _____ If you have answered yes to questions 1 through 3, you might want to consult with an HEC lender for specific information. The following questions will help to determine if you are eligible for a Housing and Urban Development (HUD) home equity conversion. A HUD-HEC is similar to other HECs but with additional requirements for the property and residents. 4. Is your home a single-family dwelling? _____ _____ 5. Will your home probably meet HUD minimum property standards? _____ _____ 6. Is your family income less than 80% of area median? _____ _____ If you have answered yes to questions 1 through 6; you might want to consult with a HUD-HEC lender for specific information.

Kardan from Israel intends to build 26,000 square meters of A class offices, project value of 50m . America House under construction is well located at Piata Victoriei now a focus of Bucharest's office developments. The Israelis have also developed Europa House, which, on completion was sold to the Austrian property fund Europolis. National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) intends to place 15m in Romania and 150 million in the area. In this regard, it recently launched an investment fund for CEEE to be called Watani Central European Real Estate Fund. The assets targeted by the fund include A class offices, commercial areas and logistics to be let to international companies. The Belgium company Liebrecht & Wood is currently negotiating several important projects. They will enter the office market in Bucharest with a 20,000 square meters building, an investment estimated at 20m-22m . "The land is fully owned by Liebrecht & Wood, and the building and development authorisations are in progress. The new Liebrecht & Wood project will be composed of four buildings with a surface of circa 5,000 square meters each, connected to one another. It will have an excellent location and whoever will come to Bucharest would not miss it, declared Johan Rogiers, managing director with the company. Warehousing Liebrecht & Wood will also develop a warehouse project, called the Bucharest Logistic Centre located in NW Bucharest on the ring road. For a first development phase, Liebrecht & Wood is negotiating the rental of the site with a potential client. The third Liebrecht & Wood project in Romania refers to the Bucharest Industrial Park, located in the Eastern Bucharest close to the Bucuresti-Pitesti motorway. Liebrecht & Wood also holds a 25 hectares land, but they did not decide on its destination yet. Autoker Holding, one of the most important real estate and logistics companies in Hungary is indenting to enter the Romanian market by building office buildings in a first phase. "Although we continue with the projects in Budapest, we started to look for investment opportunities in Romania, Poland Czech Republic and Ukraine as well. As it is risky to enter into residential projects on new markets, we will probably start with investments in office buildings:, declared Ehud Amir, the company president, quoted by Budapest Business Journal. Business Opportunities and Development Projects The Israeli investment fund Africa Israel Investment bought a 121,000 square meters plot last month for which it paid 9m . Here they intend to build a residential complex in Bucharest. Four international companies will jointly develop the largest logistics centre in Romania, Cefin Logistic Parc, which will be spread on 30 hectares in close to Bucharest, next to the Bucuresti-Pitesti motorway. The development of the project estimated at 75m will be the responsibility of the Romanian division of the Italian group Cefin specialising in real estate investment ad the Austrian Europolis will provide the funding via a loan contracted from HVB Bank Romania. The building of Cefin Logistic Park will include several phases for the next three years. The centre will have 13 hectares and it will include distinct units of at least 2,500 square meters each. European Future Group, UK, is targeting eight potential investments totaling 150m . But, everything is at the intention level. The American Apollo Real Estate division, last year's leader in terms of CEEE investment, plans to invest up to 150m in Romania. 11 new shopping centres will be built in Bucharest The real estate companies confront a great number of retail projects, but 11 projects are a certainty for Bucharest. There will be three new hypermarkets, a Cora in Drumul Taberei, a Kaufrand in Colentina and a Carrefour in Baneasa. 5 new malls will be built: City Mall on Sos. Oltenitei, Concorde Mall in Rahova, Esplanada oposite the Pasajul Marasesti, Sun Plaza at the crossing between Vacaresti and Oltenitei, Metropola at Eroilor. They are added three shopping parks two in Baneasa and one in Otopeni. Major Projects The Esplanada project includes the development under a Public-Private-Partnership, in the central Bucharest, of a multifunctional complex with several malls, office buildings, residential buildings and 10-20 floors hotels, the development of a pedestrian area and commercial spaces on circa 10 hectares in central Bucharest. The total investment for this project to start soon will exceed 800m. Projects in negotiation Other projects represent an intention. The real estate company Meinl European Land, registered in the UK, has planned investments of 100m in Romania, declared Nadine Gilles, representative of the company. "We are currently negotiating to purchase several retail projects in Romania with a value exceeding 100m". They mainly target projects in the commercial sector and potentially industrial developments. Other investments of the company in Romania are targeting the extension of the Military shopping centre. "The project could be extended on approximately 150,000 square meters. The extension will be done depending on the demand, step by step, in the following years". The Militari shopping centre, which Meinl bought last year from Liebrecht & Wood for 20m, is the first investment of the company in Romania.
