I'd already given it some thought prior to posting here on BP.

But if you do find an actual state chartered lender that will do a land loan please post it here I would be super interested to know who they are.I use Heritage out of Olympia.

@Robert Ellis Thanks for the reply on my 7 year old post.

@Dan Duruskyhttps://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/48/topics/1169308-equit... you might want to check out my post here, and feel free to read around...You don't mention whether its been your primary, within the past 2 of 5 years. 

i recommend posting more info on the project, the type of lenders you need and what the project is. may get better response
