Example:
John NewHome has had difficulty working with the bank in
attaining his construction loan for his nice home that he
and his family designed. The lender requires a substantial
amount of down payment with all kinds of extra guarantee's
and information as per the construction of the home. The paperwork
and qualification standards are just too troublesome, so Mr.
NewHome calls Pacific Island Investments LLC new home department
and provides them with the following information:
1. Do you own the land you are wishing to build on? (under
special circumstances we will acquire the land)
2. What is the value of the land in which you are building
on?
3. What is your timeframe for construction?
4. What services do you require, Architectural, Permanent
Financing assistance, Assistance with finding the land?
5. Does Mr. NewHome have the capability for long term permanent
financing with a local, regional or national bank?
After approval of Mr. NewHome, we then send them a construction
contract stipulating our costs for construction of the new
home. He will find it extremely competitive and once approved
we will begin construction of the home after receiving confirmation
that he has permanent long term financing secured and in place.
Usually this takes between 4 months and 9 months dependent
upon the size of the home.
Once we complete the home, Mr. NewHome's permanent lender
(ex. Wells Fargo, Bank of America, Bank of Hawaii etc.) will
then release all funds to us for the release of interest in
the property.
Mr. NewHome gets the dream home he wanted, Pacific Island
Investments LLC and Lotus Construction make a small profit
on the services provided for the homeowner.
Financial Example:
In the following example, we have a Mr. Newhome who owns a
lot worth $100,000.00, who then attempts to get a construction
loan. The lender requires Mr. NewHome to put all the property
down as collateral and pay typically in the range of 3%-5%
in total loan costs for origination and loan costs with inspections
and bonding.
With interest from loan proceeds during construction and other
costs that add up to a total of $15,000.00 the homeowner then
has to provide an additional 10% to 20% or $35,000.00 to $70,000.00
in the property and the bank will finance the remaining $292,000.00
for a typical principal and interest payment amount of $1,750.69.
These construction loans require the borrower (YOU) to qualify
which means you will have to put those funds into the home,
along with the additional costs of the loan, your contractor
must qualify, you must have a formalized budget, a more expensive
appraisal, survey, special title insurance, occasionally soil
reports, among other requirements.

Mr. NewHome decides this is too expensive and challenging,
so he chooses to work with Pacific Island Investments LLC.
He is required to get an appraisal and qualify for the loan
which requires a loan lock which may cost up to $2,000.00
to $3,000.00 in advance. This rate lock for the loan locks
you into an interest rate so when the home is done, there
are no questions. Mr. NewHome has to sign an agreement after
he is pre-approved by the lender that they promise to keep
their employment the same or better, as well as their credit
score requirements so they may secure the loan when the house
is complete. If Mr. NewHome chooses not to perform, he unfortunately
loses the rights to his property and the property will be
sold on the open market to recover Pacific Island Investments
LLC investment.
Mr. NewHome is an outstanding citizen and upholds his end
of the bargain and once the home is complete, his permanent
loan is executed and he moves into his house with a much lower
out of pocket expense.
