I'm doing some preliminary research for a project and I'm a little shocked/excited by the wording here.

LINK

Most banks lend on the lower of the purchase price or the appraised value. This is saying they will loan 90% LTV.

Hypothetical :

Property appraises for $1,000,000
I get it under contract for $900,000.

Am I bringing anything to the table? Normally the answer is an obvious yes. I'm just curious if anyone else has knowledge in the arena.

90% of the loan not the value correct?

That is the way I read it. So 10% down??

The link says loan to value. That's where I am getting hung up.

If it is loan to value, I wouldn't put anything down in this scenario. Right?

Would the value still be the 1,000,000 or the purchase price? Also, it stated a minimum 10% down.

Didn't see that. You're right.

Wells Fargo is a good business lender. I would ask them.

Those banks are getting SBA guarantees behind their loan so they will be quick to help.

Typically it is 90% of the LESSOR of the sales price/appraised value

An appraisal is just an estimate of value, right? If the land is purchased in an arms-length transaction with no side under duress for 900K, than the value of the house is 900K. Thus they would loan 90 percent of 900J, or 810K.
