Lenders that Finance Both Log Homes and Conventional Homes

Financing for Log Homes and Conventional Homes

Perhaps this advice, based on experience, will help anyone in need of financing for a log home or log cabin

Posted on 10/16/2008 in the B&H Log Home Journal
I bought a 3200 sq ft log home in Florida 2 years ago. Financing was a challenge until I found out that lenders should treat Log Homes as Custom Homes; there is a provision on comps and appraisals to also go by Custom Home instead of Log Home. This will help you with your financing. I ended up with a local mortgage lender who had never financed a log home before but I quoted the Log Home / Custom Home comparison and they agreed. Do a web search and you will find information on that subj. As far as Insurance well first I live in Florida so it is already hard to get a policy even on a brick home so trying to get the log home insured was a challenge but again I went with the Custom Log Home everytime I spoke of it and eventually was able to secure insurance from a top rated company for a good price. You just have to make alot of calls and if they tell you they dont handle log homes ask them how they handle custom homes. If they insure Custom Homes then tell them well my Log Home is Custom so it can be put under that category. Remember CUSTOM LOG HOME
