So I bought a block of land and I am building a house on it (IP2), pretty basic!
As was the valuation; Valuation = Build cost + Land cost
Over the six months or so that it has taken for the title and settlement the land value has increased and has been revised by the bank, the overall valuation figure has not been revised. Which has reduced the valuation of the build portion of the project meaning the bank wants some more dollars for the leverage to be the same for the build portion of the loan.
This isn't really a problem, happy to put in a few extra $$$ and good to know the land has increased in value (according to the bank at least). Just curious to know if this is a "normal" or regular occurrence.
