I plan to purchase the existing house and add a swimming pool - can I include on my mortgage? I would like to add a pool for a house I'm getting ready to buy, then I add the cost of the pool in my original mortgage or do I fund it separately?
YES you can, using a One Time Close loan, which means that money in the purchase and construction money is obtained at the same time, and results from ongoing funding after the completion .
Now, I do not openly advertise here, but I'll let you know that I am a consultant to license home loan from a lender NATIONAL well known direct that specializes in construction loans. Contact me if you want more information.
To anyone else out there reading this, please note that you can buy a house and do ANY type of renovation (it takes more dollars 50K work) with the loan based on the full value house! A great program to rehabilitate not only the new house!
Yes you can, go to the First Horizon Homes ... here I will give you the number and they have a program just for that .. Here's the number 800-615-0822 x 17428
Ask Tom Mackinnon and tell him that referred you Daniel. Let me know how it goes
No, you must either obtain a second mortgage or mortgage after closing on the first mortgage based on the amount of equity you have.

you'll have to pay separately, there are laws that restrict how a purchase contract is established. Improvements that are not made to make the house livable can be added. Most lenders will not even consider the application of this kind of stipulation. I know because I work in the company.
The best thing to do is to buy the house, then get a line of credit. This will allow you a credit line guaranteed revoling your house to do this and other improvements. Good Luck.
No, you can not do that, a bank will give you a loan in the amount of how much the house is worth on the market today. You must wait until the house grows in value, and depending on where you live it can happen in a month or a year, so do not tighten. or home line of credit and add a pool. Good luck to you.
No, most mortgage companies will not add to the additional amount for this. buy the house, then either take a second mortgage for the renovation and the pool, or get a credit line mortgage and have installed the pool.
