FINANCING Your BARNDOMINIUM | Loan For Your Barndominium

[@tripplej1678]

This has to be one of the most informative videos I have watched in a while. Thank you...already on your site playing with the tools there...Thank you!

[@garyfennen4581]

Why didnt he mention the reason you cant be your own GC in Texas?

[@d.sanders2024]

This has been an INCREDIBLY healpful video. Especially for those of us starting in our journey!

[@The85F0X]

I’m having so much trouble with financing my barndo. What I’m trying for is to buy the building outright and then borrow money to have the building erected and foundation completed. I then plan to come in and build out the interior myself. Literally have been to 10+ banks and credit unions and the moment I tell them what my plans are, they hit the brakes. I have been working with this one bank who swore they could do what I’m asking and then after a month, I literally just got an email saying NO. I’m in Texas. This has been a depressing process as I’m having to live with my parents following a divorce where I lost everything. At 38, I’m 100% over it.

[@Shady2695]

it just a custom house built with steel stud and metal roof and siding domt say anything about barno, all it is is a custom house

[@BP-kc3dj]

Bless you guys for putting this together. I have been searching high and low for this. ❣❣❣❣

[@hcr-motorworks]

Everything up to interior walls required to be done by a professional?! Garbage terms, deal breaker on that alone.

[@BrettMcNary]

100% f these financers

[@smokythebear9711]

Thanks for saving me the 16 minutes of watching this video

[@ethanwebb6122]

Yeah I'm gonna save so much money hanging pictures myself..😂

[@Badenhawk]

​@@ethanwebb6122don't forget the money you will save installing your own outlet covers.

[@VoteBlue4011]

These people want to ensure they make a lot of money off your build. What shit!

[@michelmacias8969]

Thank you, guys

[@brookekilgore5937]

When he talked about the fondues loving area can if still be studio style ? My husband and I want it all open except for bathroom and maybe the laundry room

[@dcbc991]

Great information here! Thanks for posting this content.

[@geminiots2121]

Thanka for that info. One of my students turned me on to Barndominiums and i instantly fell in love! This is completely my style of home. What i love most about it is no basements or crawl space!! I hate them. But when i saw how affordable it was it was to build. I bought my very first home a few yeara ago and i hate it. Not the house but who im surrounded by. My neighborhood was a nice workingnor retired class whic is now being over taken some less than desirable people. As a single woman, it makes me feel very unsafe some days. I'm ready to move a bit further out and put some distance between people. I understand now why people opt to live in rural areas. Your info has been awesome and im really excited venture into my new futher home!! Thanknyou for the great info.

[@Grunt49]

Look for classes on self defense.Learn to use a firearm.

[@kamiller4812]

Do they work with veterans?

[@mgtowalfa508]

So what if I already get pre approved for a USDA loan? Would I use Nationwide or no?

[@rtubed2471]

So basically you cannot self build. How does that help the DIY’r?!

[@BrettMcNary]

It doesn't. These guys promoting a lender who only loans to those using a GC is insulting their viewer.

[@MrPostFrame]

You can be the GC. We are looking for a reliable lender we can recommend to DIYers.

[@Painfulwhale360]

Thank you for this video!

[@AnthonyOrtiz247]

Very informative video. Do they allow for a VA loan vs the Fannie Mae?

[@1CE1CE]

I almost got excited until he said in TX, you cannot GC 5:14

[@MrPostFrame]

We’ve heard of some folks finding ways around it but definitely want to research that further

[@JustinKelly]

Do you guys have any videos on barndominium's with basements (such as a walkout)? Is this feasible with this type of building? Thanks!

[@FJB2020]

Just stick frame it with trusses... You get the same design capabilities, but it is built better..

[@baptistlion4060]

why would you want a basement. get above ground tornado shelter if that's your concern

[@JoVeda_xo]

Thanks and I will. 😊

[@BrettMcNary]

"you can act as GC, but can't participate in the build until it's basically done" ................imagine showing people how to build a house from the ground up as "DIY'er" and then promoting a lender who only lends to people having someone else do the build. What sort of kickback made you want to do a video with them?

[@MrPostFrame]

We are not receiving any kick back. This is an option for many people that would like to GC their project. We are still searching for a great option for the DIYer. This is the best option we’ve found this far. While we know it doesn’t take care of everyone’s needs.

[@JeffCichocki]

Why be such a jerk? The lender/Govt sets the rules, not the builder. Lenders when creating loan products have to follow federal guidelines. If you don’t like this lender, go find your own.

[@BrettMcNary]

@@JeffCichocki Govt doesn't "set the rules"...they make law. Each financial institution has their own parameters they set and follow for themselves. If this was, in your words "set by the govt" then all lenders would be exactly the same. This isn't "being a jerk". Financing a barndo is the same as financing any other house. You can literally go to ANY bank and do so. Maybe it would take you watching a 14 minute video to understand this. The real challenge is finding a lender who works with self GC barndo builders........that's the real challenge that is worthy of a video.

[@zandertunes9602]

​​​​​@@BrettMcNarymaybe there were endless lenders that did give loans to gc builders that existed.... since the beginning of the country. But the people basically told the banks nobody knows how to do diy. Oh wait... every lender was that way. That how our country was built

[@texanaggie]

What are the rules in Texas about Self General Contractors and getting a Barndo loan ?

[@industrialawnllc4239]

ya thats what i wanna know. Im in San Antonio and more than capable of being a self GC.

[@tdmallet]

I believe you have to be licensed in texas to GC.

[@moabman6803]

How do you get around the 40/60 rule?

[@Badenhawk]

Probably do an unattached shop.

[@Grunt49]

Do two story on living?

[@Cnoted33]

Can I qualify with a VA Loan?

[@kylermichael3972]

I don’t think VA loans cover building loans. I could be wrong but I always thought that va loans are turn the key homes, meaning already built and ready to move in to.

[@Cnoted33]

@@kylermichael3972 the VA loan should be evolving to meet the demands of veterans home buying preferences- prefabricated homes are becoming popular with veterans

[@mark120371]

Do you do VA loans?

[@MrPostFrame]

There are lenders who will loan for VA. Word of caution- they’re a lot more in depth of a process and as far as I know they don’t have options for diy unless you’re a licensed professional

[@elfuturomio]

Perhaps at one point it would have been but now not even on the list

[@homerepairguy1902]

Same as bank, can't be a self builder! Have to pay someone $300k to build it.

[@Seashelley1]

Yes barn chickens pond❤

Thank you guys. I think you are almost the only one covering this very unknown area of financing for the bardo.

[@sbyer83]

Do they finance land with barndo builds?

[@usmarshall336]

Excellent video on financing for barndominiums.. I didn't see it explained as far as how many draws... I may have missed that but I would like to know more about that. And also I don't want to pay 2 closing cost.

[@MG1776-t9p]

that is too bad. Electrical wiring is mostly not difficult, especially the labor intensive part of pulling wire and putting switches and receps in. This guy won't allow you to save that money.

[@g.g9897]

Would love to get this information in writing to sit down with my family because we like what we see in the Barndominium .

[@johnhouseman3985]

A good video to put out here.. I have not seen any other builders of Barndominiums do this.. I don't expect you to answer this because it is more of the lender question but others may be thinking the same. What about if you are trying to buy a place that is already completed or if you have built lived there & forever what reason must move & sell. Do they or others lend on competed Barndominiums..

[@trevorminer3413]

Does a VA loan qualify?

[@JamesValentineBaja1000]

Yes

[@frontline_window_cleaning]

Can you be your own GC in texas? Any elaboration on that? Thanks in advance.

[@WilliCollins]

There was nothing said about VA home loans for veterans

Does First Federal do VA Bardominium loans?

Soooo.. can I open an LLC and be the “contractor”?

Excellent question.

[@mistymclendon7534]

This was so helpful. I havent found anywhere that was as in depth and complete with explaining the financing process. We are looking to build in Georgia and this was helpful.

[@MrPostFrame]

Awesome I’m glad we could help!

[@bl00l0ver]

Why is Texas excluded from self contracting?

[@bmalone0688]

I’m also curious of this. In my area there are a TON of barndos being built and I know some who have done their own.

[@ThraX_86]

Same question here. I live in Texas and was looking forward when I saw this video, and then he drops Texas without explaining. Paul, do you have any information on this?

[@prestonstuart2463]

Id love the answer to this one. Kind of bummed when i heard that

I would still contact Dave. He's very helpful and if he can't take care of you he may know someone who can.

Do you have any recommendations for a contractor that builds these types of homes in Southern Nevada?

[@dylankadow8428]

how about a barndominium that has special exterior look to fit the HOA. For example, I am looking for all the perks of a barndo, but my HOA requires a spanish style/florida style house. Are you seeing this done? I'm not seeing any info on that!

[@lordabstract82]

Your first mistake was moving into an HOA. Get your own land and do whatever you want. 💯

how does VA construction loans and having the land work?

[@big1979f150]

So no you will probably not get a DIY build loan.

[@rangerdoc1029]

I ran out of money halfway through the video . 😞

[@industrialawnllc4239]

why cant you be a self GC in Texas?

[@tq7517]

Will they lend for construction on land zoned agriculture?

[@E095660]

Basically you have to hire everthing out

[@JamesValentineBaja1000]

Nothing down with va

[@lsieu]

This is super informative. Thank you so much for sharing this info.

[@Jessehermansonphotography]

Being a journeyman concrete finisher and journeyman Carpenter. I’m not subcontracting that out. I could save 20-30% on being the GC but I could save ALOT more by doing that work myself. I guess I will have to figure out financing for the land and cash build the house.

[@MrPostFrame]

This lender + a lot of lenders allow for the full GC of the project. They will also allow DIY for anything you’re a professional at- so concrete/carpentry for you would be allowed. People also hire their other pro friends to be the one billing for the job but you can do the labor if your contractor feels comfortable with that. There are ways to get it done + finance it especially for folks connected in the trades.

[@wallfly0131]

Is it a compound interest loan ?

[@JeffCichocki]

I’ve never heard of a lender that doesn’t charge compound interest.

[@SolidworksUnlimited]

There is another type that's called a simple interest loan, where the interest is recalculated after each payment, so you pay less interest because their risk goes down by that payment amount. If you decide to pay a little bigger payment you get charged less interest because your balance went down, encouraging you to pay it off faster. I try to get the simple interest if at all possible. Saves you thousands in the duration of the loan.

[@naseerenshallah4276]

Thank you!! Very helpful

[@paulg2132]

From my research, Oklahoma doesn't allow the homeowner to be the General Contractor

[@MrPostFrame]

A lot of those options are county dependent, and yes sometimes state wide.

[@jimremington716]

Thanks for the information on this the wife and I have been trying to figure out the amount we would qualify for to build our Post and frame home this gives another lender to talk to.

[@dragbikedemon]

What's the interest rate?

[@dfoltz268]

Interest rates vary depending on the current rates and your income/credit scores/ability to pay. The current interest rate would really not be of use in a video like this as it would not be the same for others looking to buy/build.

[@av1204]

Can you GC a more traditional build?

[@zandertunes9602]

Yes

[@Overpar73]

It's so funny that this video came out today as we went to our bank this morning and signed for our money to build our new post frame shop.
