FHA Mortgage Loans for Farm Buildings

(Continued irom page 27) ofier safeguards to borrowers since they assure well-constructed homes and buildings. In addition to convenient. repayments in regular installments, the FHA plan eliminates second mortgages and periodical expensive refinancing costs.

Down payments by borrowers, which must amount to at least 10 per cent of the total property valuation, and in some cases to 20 per cent, do ltot necessarily have to consist of cash. Land already owned by the loan applicant may constitute all or part of the down payment.

While 15 per ,cent of the loan proceeds must be used for materials and labor in the repair or construction of buildings upon the farm property, contractors doing the construction rvork may employ the services of the bo,rrorver at customary wages or may purchase materials owned by the borrower at reasonable prices.

The term "farm" as applied to FHA-insured mortgages is interpreted by the administrative rules to mean real estate which in the judgment of the Admi,nistrator is capable of producing an annual gross income of $350 in kind, cash or rent from agricultural uses, or derives 25 per cent or more of its rental value fronr agricultural uses, or derirtes 25 per,cent or more of its capital value from its agricultural capacity.
