			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Richard and Maggie were concerned with being close to retirement age still with a sizable mortgage on their own home, with no savings or investments. They had hopes and dreams of buying a business as a vehicle to clear their debts and have a comfortable lifestyle in retirement. </p>
<p>“We found the business opportunity that suited our needs but we were concerned that because of our ages, with limited superannuation and equity in our own home, the traditional lenders would not help us.&#8221; said Richard. &#8220;We were referred to Loan Saver Network by James Home Services. They were fabulous. We had a tight timeframe&#8230; but with Loan Saver Network we were able to meet the deadline and secure the franchise we wanted.&#8221; “It’s a dream come true being our own bosses and not only earning a great income from the business but with the help of Loan Saver Network we are now setting up the foundations to buy our first investment property.” </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Construction loans are usually set up by the lender initially as a standard variable loan. Throughout the construction of the dwelling, there are up to 5 progress drawdowns of the loan. The first draw down is when the slab is laid, through to final drawdown when the house is finished.</p>
<p>The purchase of the land can be a second loan, or combined with the construction loan.</p>
<p>Lenders have different policies and procedures for Construction Loans. The value of a Constructed Property is mostly seen as the value of the land + the value of the Fixed Price Building Contract. The lender will use this figure as a valuation as opposed to the actual proposed end valuation.</p>
<p>There are many options for Construction loans, each to suit a variety of circumstances.</p>
