Purchasing land in Whatcom County and Skagit County can be challenging. There are several things that you need to be aware of before beginning the search for land. First, you need to understand that financing land is different than financing a home. Because land is a riskier investment for lenders, higher down payments are often required. Typical down payments on land range from 20% to 35%.
The second major challenge with purchasing land is obtaining utilities. You need to secure water, power and septic before you move forward with building a home. If the property is located in the city this is often not a big issue, land in rural areas typically do face utility challenges. For this reason it is important to contact a real estate professional that is experienced in dealing with land.
