Hi All,
Assume below all finance is Lowdoc (or is nodoc possible?)
Just trying to understand how presales work and if they are a good way to do things with small projects - upto 4 townhouses on 1 title.
(Or are they only for big projects?)
Has anyone out there used presales on say 1, 2, 3 or 4 unit developments?
The usual way is 20% deposit on land - then 20% deposit on building costs = build the houses.
Can presales save me putting in the 20% deposits on the building costs?
Firstly why do lenders want presales. Is it because the presale deposit supplies the 20% deposit for construction? So with a duplex 2 presales at 10% deposit would be required. With 4 units, 4 presales with 5% deposit would be required? Or am I missing it. Because doesnt the deposit money just go into trust somehow - if they use a deposit bond then there isnt even physical money changing hands??
Thanks for any input
