Complete Guide to Land Loans
Everything you need to know about land loans and how to get a loan for land
What is a Land Loan?
A land loan finances the purchase of vacant land or land with development potential, for building a home, commercial use or farming. Terms differ from a standard home loan and depend on land type, location and development plans.
Use our loan repayment calculator to estimate repayments. Planning to build? See our construction loans and home and land packages.
How Does a Land Loan Work?
You borrow to buy the land; terms vary for raw (unserviced) vs serviced land. Many borrowers later move to construction financing when they build. Lenders assess value, location and development potential.
We help you choose the right land loan structure and, when you're ready, construction finance.

Our loan repayment calculator estimates monthly repayments and total interest for different loan amounts and terms. Useful for both residential and commercial land.
