What is construction financing?
Getting real estate credit is not exclusive to those who are going to acquire a ready-made house. In construction financing , the bank finances both the purchase of the land and the work itself. Thus, some of the requirements to obtain this loan are:
- Be over 18 years of age or be emancipated at the age of 16;
- Have Brazilian nationality or a permanent visa;
- Have civil capacity, as well as payment;
- Not having the name in debtor records, such as SPC and SERASA, for example;
- Have no loans or financing in progress;
The bank finances up to 80% of the total amount and it is possible to use the FGTS to deduct the installments, if you have a formal contract for 3 years or more. The guarantee of the financing is the fiduciary alienation, that is, the property itself is used to guarantee the payment. Thus, in case of default, it can be taken by the bank to pay off the outstanding balance.
The interest rate is 5% per year and the price of each installment cannot commit more than 30% of your gross family income. In addition, families with an income of less than R$3600 may qualify for grants .
