Default Property/Land/New builds

Hope someone here can help me out a bit ...

Basicaly I'm looking at buying some land and building a couple od houses on it. It's me and another person. So 1 house each.

Question is, can I get a mortgage on the land/building costs?
I.e. land is 150k build is 100k So 250k in total. Between the 2 of us we have about 75-80k and need to finance the rest. Once the house are built we'd obviously each go and get a seperate mortgage to clear this finance. Where can I get a loan like this as I'm sure a normal mortgage wouldn't apply.

Cheers,

Matt.

yes, generally the lender will release the cash in tranches as the build progresses.

Hello

That looks nice. Can you tell me how much that cost to build? (by PM if you wish).

Thank you!

Steve.

I'd like to do this, but trying to find available land seems quite a hard task.
