in the scenario you quoted, the person who paid for their house in full is now $5,000 positive in 1 years time.
the person who paid 100k down and borrowed the rest is now $375,000 negative in 1 years time.
$5,000
-$375,000
i dont know, man, tough choice.

I think you should listen BGD, he has point, hell, I would send him PM to request his advices... what are benefits to buy the terrain and I build my own house?
Land loans are different from mortgages for home purchases. For lenders, land loans are riskier because the loan's collateral, the property, isn't being used for housing because of that risk, down payments and interest rates are higher for land loans than for mortgage loans. Oh yes, bgd is right.

i would honestly think a mtg for land would be marginally lower than a mtg for a home just on the basis that improvements to land appreciate either slower or depreciate and land generally appreciates, but i don't know the answer to this.
like i think when the assessor values your home for taxes they do the land and the house at different rates idk

asset is secured by the loan. bank made a loan to LLC. Loans on real estate are generally non-recourse (they can only go after the property not your personal assets) no harm to credit or minimal if a foreclosure bc its against the llc
minimal risk of downside. i make the 25k in a year...sell the house to someone else and pocket 25k. meanwhile the chump with a 5k return needs to do that for five years.... i can continue to make 25k repeatedly.
i mean yeah doing the grandma thing and making 5k is OK with no risk. But you should just buy treasury bonds if you want low returns with 0 risk and avoid the issues with real estate (maintenance, fluctuation in price, etc...)Last edited by Cams Purple Lambo; 07-08-2018 at 10:34 PM.
