100% Mortgage for Self Build

I looked for this question in previous threads but couldn't find it: I have a site and wish to get a mortgage to build a house. From viewing the various mortgage provider websites they all say that 100% mortgages are not available for self build. Are there any exceptions to this, i.e does the value of the land I own make a difference?
 
Hi Flynn,

Yes- from what I know the value of your site will help and you only require 100% of the build costs, which might be for example a 75% mortgage based on your site value.

Hope that helps,
Michelle.
 
If you already own the site most lenders will advance 100% of the build costs as the value of the land is effectively the deposit. The end value of the house should be well in excess of the mortgage.

Got 100% build cost from Bank of Scotland, in same circumstances, no problem.
 
Hi, we're buying a site and building and got the full 100% from Permanent TSB.
 
am doing the same at the moment, ebs have information booklets in all their braches underlining their 100% self build mortgage. i am employing a building contractor and get a mortgage to cover the build, council fees, plus contingency plan!
