If I was to buy a lot, but not want to build on it for 4-5 years, would it be beneficial to try and pay off the lot and use it as the 20% or save the cash and just put the down payment on the lot and combine the lot and construction loan at the end into one mortgage?

the lot can be used as your down payment or part of your down payment on the construction loan. So i would advice paying the lot off.
