Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 11, June 11, 2024

Section 12.20.36.8 - GENERAL

A. An association may make a real estate loan only after a qualified person designated by its board has submitted a signed appraisal of the security property, except that an insured or guaranteed loan may be made on the basis of a valuation of the security property furnished to the association by the insuring or guaranteeing agency. The association shall pay the cost of any appraisal of the security property obtained by the association after loan closing but prior to maturity of a loan, unless the borrower specifically requests the appraisal or the appraisal is made pursuant to the borrower's request to modify or refinance the loan.

B. Except as expressly authorized by this sub-part [now part], repayments on real estate loans shall begin not later than 60 days after the loan is disbursed, provided that if such loans are for construction, substantial alteration, repair or improvement, repayments may begin not later than 36 months (24 months for loans secured by real estate consisting solely of a home or combination of home and business property) after the date of the first disbursement, and interest shall be payable at least semiannually until regular periodic payments begin.

C. Subject to the limitations of OTS Regulations Section 545.33(c), an association may adjust the interest rate, payment, balance or term to maturity on any real estate loan as authorized by the loan contract, and may receive a portion of the consideration for making a real estate loan in the form of a percentage of the amount by which the current market value of the property, during the loan term or at maturity, exceeds the original appraised value.
