Hi laurencella,
With a 700+ credit score, you should be able to get a construction loan. A 25% down payment is a bit too high. Did you ask the lenders why they need you to put down such a big amount of down payment? Do they not consider you creditworthy?
You may go for a no-obligation free mortgage consultation with the lenders in this community. They will asses your financial situation, your credit scores etc. and will let you know if you can get a loan without having to put down 25%. They should also be able to suggest you the right type of loan program that will meet your requirements. |

| Hi, 700 fico score is pretty good but 25% down does seem a little high. |
