Construction Loan Disbursement - Land Title Guarantee Company: Serving Colorado and its people since 1967 Home Lenders Construction Loan Disbursement Service Construction Loan Disbursing Service for Lenders For information about the Construction Disbursing process or pricing, please contact us via email or by calling the Construction Disbursement Department at 303-636-2760. The Benefits: Land Title's Construction Loan Disbursing Department is staffed by professionals with a total of over 51 years experience. Land Title keeps an accurate accounting of funds disbursed from the loan. Land Title employs its own professional inspectors to provide the highest quality inspections at no additional cost to you. Land Title collects Mechanic's Lien waivers throughout the project from each subcontractor, freeing up your time for other priorities. Land Title charges one flat fee for residential properties, which includes the inspection report, the Mechanic's Lien Endorsement, disbursement processing, and all delivery fees. A single fee means you can accurately budget for all your upcoming projects. Borrowers are included in the disbursement agreement, so no one is left out of the loop. Land Title maintains your escrow instructions. Land Title disburses on commercial projects and single family residences. Loans disbursed generally range from $200,000 to $50,000,000. However, we can disburse on loans of any amount. The Process: The construction Loan Disbursement process begins when the general contractor submits a Draw Request to Land Title. Land Title can provide a form upon request. However, your form, a computerized form, or an AIA form are all generally acceptable. The Draw Request includes the names and addresses of payees and the amounts to be paid. All invoices to be paid should be attached. The contractor presents the Draw Request to the owner and obtains the owner's approval and signature. Land Title conducts the Inspections and prepares a Construction Progress Report affirming that the work and materials are in place and estimates the overall percentage of completion. Land Title conducts a title search for Mechanic's Liens. Land Title forwards to the lender the Draw Request, together with the title search for Mechanic's Liens. While the draw is pending lender approval, Land Title cuts all checks, obtains W-9 tax identification numbers, prepares the check register, and is ready to disburse as soon as the lender's funds are deposited into Land Title's account. Items of construction interest, overhead and profit, and soft costs can be paid if they are in accord with the lender's policy. The lender and the borrower must both approve these payments in writing. When the lender approves the draw and funds are received, Land Title mails the already-prepared checks directly to the contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and vendors as directed. Land Title's disbursement checks have a lien waiver imprinted on the face of the check. The lien waiver states the amount, the ownership, and the address, and the check stub gives the description of invoices or work being paid. The lien waiver must be signed separately and apart from the check endorsement. If the payee fails to sign the lien waiver, the check will not clear the bank. After Land Title has prepared and disbursed checks directly to all subcontractors and suppliers, Land Title will furnish a check register--listing all checks by check numbers, person(s) paid, and the amounts paid--to the contractor after each draw, and to the borrower and lender upon request. Land Title can furnish a check register from day one to any point in the construction. Land Title can also furnish a register for all payments to any individual payee at any time during or at the end of construction. The Pricing Land Title's Construction Disbursement pricing is based on the size of the loan and type of protection being provided. Please contact the Construction Disbursement Department by email or phone (303-636-2760) for a quote. Generally, the price for single family residences is $750 for loans up to $500,000, then 75 cents for each $1,000 thereafter.

An offer is a formal bid for the property, and among other things, sets the amount you are willing to pay for the home. The Offer to Purchase is a signed contract and is therefore a legally binding commitment stating that you will buy the property provided certain terms and conditions are met. An accepted Offer to Purchase Real Estate must be in writing and must be signed by both parties; the Commonwealth of Massachusetts does not recognize verbal offers as valid. You might consider bringing your lawyer into the process before you sign anything, because an attorney can protect your interests as a first-time home buyer. Considerations Many factors come into play as you prepare to make an offer on a property. Carefully consider the following points: What is the condition and age of the house? What will be the cost of any repairs? Are the sellers willing to take on any of the repairs or closing costs? How long has the property been on the market? How active is the market? (i.e., buyers or sellers market) Are the sellers anxious to sell? Is the property in a particularly desirable location or school system? Does the house have everything or almost everything you've been looking for? Preparing the Offer When you are ready to make an offer to a seller or to the agent involved, do not offer more than you can afford. The offer should clearly outline all terms and conditions of the sale, including your name and the name of the party to whom the offer is made, the property's address, any special provisions regarding fixtures, appliances, etc., the total amount of the purchase price being offered (including the amount of deposit you are putting down to bind the offer and the additional deposit to be paid upon the execution of the Purchase and Sale Agreement), and any additional riders and deadline dates. Real Estate Regulations for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts can be obtained from www.mass.gov Timing and Deadlines Timing and deadlines are very important in real estate transactions. You should allow yourself enough time in the Offer to Purchase Real Estate to get an inspection, negotiate the Purchase and Sale Agreement, apply for and obtain mortgage financing, and set a closing date. Real estate deals often fail based on the inability to meet deadlines set forth in the offer. An Accepted Offer The seller may accept, reject or counter your offer. If there is a counter-offer, you may in turn accept, reject or counter. The negotiations between you and the seller could go on for several days and may be stressful at times. One way to mitigate stress during the negotiations is to involve a broker to mediate the process. It is important to remember that regardless of the progress of your negotiations, the house remains on the market during negotiations. Do I Need an Attorney? It is recommended that you retain an attorney when purchasing your first home. How will an Attorney help me? An attorney will protect your interests as a home buyer, and will: Help you negotiate a fair purchase price Help you prepare the Offer to Purchase Help you negotiate a more favorable purchase price if the home inspection uncovers significant problems Draft and/or revise the Purchase and Sale Agreement to protect you and your money Assist you with the mortgage process Prepare you for the final walk-through of the property Attend the closing and represent your interests. Tips for Successful Negotiations When negotiating the price of a home with the seller, you must analyze all of the relevant factors and determine who has the stronger bargaining position. Potential factors include market activity, location and timing. If the local market is active with many other buyers interested in the home, the seller may have the better position. If your local market is not active and the seller needs to sell the home, you may be in a better position to negotiate. For negotiating tips, Go The Purchase and Sale Agreement Once your offer has been accepted a Purchase and Sales agreement (normally the second contract between the buyer and the seller after the initial Offer to Purchase is signed) is drawn up by the broker. The Purchase and Sale Agreement spells out the agreement between the parties in specific detail. REMEMBER! This is a legally binding contract that should be reviewed by your attorney before you sign it. There are two types of Purchase and Sale Agreements: a Standard Form Purchase and Sale Agreement and a Condominium Purchase and Sales Agreement, which is designed specifically for issues associated with condominiums. It is a good idea to contact a broker to obtain copies of these forms. For a description of all components of a sales contract, Go Provisions and Contingencies By placing provisions and contingencies in your offer, you provide additional protections for you and your money. The Purchase and Sale Agreement should include a mortgage contingency clause, which states that your ability to buy the house is contingent upon your ability to obtain financing by an agreed upon date. Such a clause ensures that you do not lose your deposit on the house if your loan is not approved. Other contingencies should include acceptable home, termite, radon and lead paint inspections. The loan closing date and occupancy date should also be indicated in the agreement. For more information on provisions and contingencies, Go The Home Inspection What is the value of a home inspection? A satisfactory home inspection, although not required by law, is a major component of purchasing a home. A home inspection examines the condition of the property, and ensures that you are aware of any necessary repairs and potential problems before you buy the home. The buyer selects a licensed home inspector and pays for the inspection. The home inspection will cost a few hundred dollars but should be done; after all, uncovering problems before you buy could save you thousands.
