Don't Build A Barndominium Without Watching This First: Why Barndo Financing Gets Denied
In this video i cover the difficulty that we're having with refinancing our self-built barndo. We started building our barndo back in 2021 and have finally finished but we're having a hard time getting a refinance. Lenders don't want to lend on our property because they say the style of the building doesn't conform to their portfolio.
Lenders see the appraisal and say "everything looks good this should be no issue" but when it goes to underwriting it gets declined. I talk about the biggest factors that are affecting the lendability of the the property.
If you are thinking about building a barndo you will want to avoid these issue because it can affect the way you'll be able to sell or pull money out.
If you have any suggestions or tips let me know in the comments!

    Hey love the videos i've been searching for someone who has built something similar to what I want and found your channel. I'm planning on in building a 30x60 shop house with some similar features after I sell my current house but it was estimated to sell for 120,000 so figured i'd see what you thought it would cost to build nowadays. Instead of having a 2 floor living quarters like yours I was thinking of a 20x30 loft with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a kitchen for the living quarters and the space underneath dedicated to tools and workbench etc. The other 30x40 would be garage space like yours. I'm wondering if mine would be cheaper since i'm building less or cost more since you built yours 2-3 years ago. I would probably contract out the building of the exterior but put in the living quarters my self. Looking forward to hearing from you and enjoyed the videos.

      @homesteadingbarndo 16 днів тому

      @@broc5224 yes I'm sure yours would be cheaper with less living space. I think if you did the work yourself you could probably be building for around 70-90 a sq foot. If you have contractors do it your looking around 160-200 a sq foot. If you're on a budget the more you can do the better.

      I think because we would likely have family living in this one at some point, most likely. We also kind of imagined that we would want a more traditional looking home on our property as well. At some point, it would definitely be nice to have more windows and a little bit more of a fancy design, but we're actually really happy with the barn dough and don't have plans immediately of building another house like we had originally thought. One thing that we do really want to build is a barn and so that's going to be our next big project

      @@homesteadingbarndo Because their reasoning is that theyre afraid youre gonna dump the sewage on the ground. That fear alone shouldnt be the basis of keeping it illegal, just make it plainly illegal to dump on the ground. Im practically homeless right now. Im riddled with debt and was evicted from my apartment because I couldnt pay the rent anymore because they raised it from $1050 to $1450 per month. I needed to leave, so instead of being homeless, I picked up a cheap, $5000 camper to live in. Parked it on my parents property. Zoning laws in my town do not allow RVs to be used for "human habitation" So the way I see it, they would rather me be homeless on the street (Which is also illegal to live on the street where I live) than have a home on someone elses land that I have full permission to be on. Fuck the zoning laws, I live in it anyway. So where am I supposed to go if I follow the laws? I cant be on the street because thats illegal, I cant live in a camper because thats illegal, and I cant stay in my relatives house because they dont have the space to accomodate me. Its beyond disgusting that towns do not allow you to purchase an RV to live in, because they dont consider them homesteads. The law does not grant me any options. I'm damned if I do, damned if I dont. So I have no choice but to break the zoning laws. The ONLY way in my town that they will allow you to live in an RV on your property is if you remove the wheels from it, and pay upwards of $20,000 to the town to have them come and set up a way for your sewage to dump to the septic tank. ITS ALL ABOUT MONEY TO THEM. Luckily, its pretty easy to get away with doing it. I've been living in it for 7 months now and have yet to have any problems. Luckily my house is not viewable from the street, so unless zoning regulation officers have a reason to come here, they wont.

Parked it on my parents property. Only to find out later that zoning laws also do not allow me to live in an RV on family owned property. RV/Mobile Homes cannot be used for human habitation. RVs can only be parked or stored on your property. The only way zoning laws would allow me to live in the RV on my parents property is if I pay them $21,500 to modify our septic system to hook up to the RV as well, and they want me to remove all wheels from the vehicle. Just make it illegal to dump on the ground, dont make it illegal to live in an RV because you think someones gonna dump sewage on the ground. (Which whos gonna do that anyway? That would absolutely reek outside of your camper) I cant live in my parents house because they dont have the room to accomodate my wife and I. So to cap, its illegal to live on the street, its illegal to set up an encampment in the woods, only option was to buy a camper to live in, which is also illegal apparently too. So I literally cant live anywhere legally without breaking some sort of law, so as I said, live in it anyway. Its beyond disgusting that its literally illegal to be poor.
