Appraisals, Values and Exceptions

Answered by:

Question:

Assume the following terms on a loan to an individual to purchase real estate: The purchase price is $100,000. The borrower wants to add an additional tract of land in lieu of paying any cash down. The land is owned free and clear and is valued at $30,000. This results in a loan amount of $100,000 with total collateral value of $130,000 and a loan to value (LTV) of 77%. Am I right in thinking that I will have a loan to cost exception and not an LTV exception? This loan would not need to be reported against the banks 30% of capital limit on commercial real estate exceptions.

In situations where a loan is fully cross-collateralized by two or more properties or is secured by a collateral pool of two or more properties, the appropriate maximum loan amount under supervisory loan-to-value limits is the sum of the value of each property, less senior liens, multiplied by the appropriate loan-to-value limit for each property.
