What are common land measurements?
Mile
Acre
Square foot
Yard
Rod
Hectare
Inches, feet in miles
1 yard = 3 feet
One rod = 16 1/2 feet
1 mile = 5280 feet
1 square ft.= 144 square in.
1 acre = 43,560 ft.²
1 hectare = 2.47 acres.
And an improved lot is advertised at 130,680 ft.² how many acres is this?
3 acres
Take the total feet and divided by 1 acre which is 43,560 = 3 acres
Area formula for a rectangle
Length x width
17 inches x 24 inches equals 408 ft.²
Area formula for a triangle
Half the base x height
If the base is 60, divide that and half = 30
If the height is 70 x 30 = 2100 in square feet
A property has a rectangular patio that is 10’ x 15’. What is the area of the patio?
150 ft.²
10 X 15 = 150
The property are looking to list has an addition that was built years ago. Edition master bedroom measures 20’ x 30’ any master bathroom measures 10’ x 10’. What is the total square footage of the entire addition?
700 ft.²
20 X 30 = 600
10 X 10 = 100
Land acquisition costs
Cost of purchase = land area x cost per unit
$75,000 = 5 acres x $15,000 per acre
The cost of a parcel of land is $.75 per square foot
To figure this out, you have to take the acres and find the square feet.
1 acre equals 43,560 ft.²
If the client wants to acres multiply 43,560 x 2. = 87,120 feet x .75= $65,340
A landowner has 300 acres of land. He’s parcel in the land and selling it for two dollars per square foot. James wanted wants to purchase 2 acres. How much will the cost be
$174,240
1 acre acres 43,560 x 2 = 87,120 ft.² x 2 dollars per square foot = $174,240
Loan-to-value ratio LTV
The ratio of a loan amount to the value of the property being purchased
If the loan to value ratio exceeds 80%, the borrower will likely have to purchase private mortgage insurance for the lender
LTVR loan to value ratio equation
LTVR =(loan amount ÷ home value) x 100
Home purchase price $100,000, buyer puts down $10,000, this is a 90/10 loan
LTVR = $90,000 ÷ $100,000 x 100 = 0.9.x 100 = 90
Buyer puts down 20% on a house with purchase price $100,000 set an alone would be $80,000
LTVR = $80,000 ÷ $100,000x 100 = 0.8×100 = 80.
Loan origination fee
Loan amount x loan origination percentage
$100,000 loan lender charges 1% loan origination fee
Move percentage to a decimal two places to the left
What percent is 0.01 as a decimal.
Loan origination fee = $100,000 x 0.01 = $1000.
360,000 financed with a $40,000 down payment
90/10 LTVR
360,000 ÷ 40,000 =0.9.x 100 = 90
10 LTVR
Loan-to-value ratio
Loan amount ÷home value x 100
Property is valued at $500,000 with a $50,000 down payment, financing $450,000
90/10 LTVR
500,000÷450,000 = 1.111.
Move the decimal to the left two times 0.1.
0.1× 100 = 10
Purchase price $600,000 and financing $480,000
80/20 LTVR
Loan amount 480,000 divided by home value $600,000 = 0.8.
0.8× 100 = 80
Sale price $300,000 financing $180,000
60/40 LTVR
$180,000 divided by $300,000 = 0.6×100 = 60.
Do you have a buyer who’s purchasing a home priced at $385,000 and appraised at $380,000. The bank has a 90/10 loan to value ratio and will charge in origination fee of 1% at closing. Calculate the loan origination fee.
$3420
Appraised amount is $380,000, 90% of that equals 342,000 x 0.01 = $3420.
That is one percent of the loan amount
Mortgage or loan origination points
These are different from discount points. Discount points are essentially prepaid interest you pay at the beginning to drive down your overall monthly payment on a mortgage.
One point = 1% of loan amount
Loan amount x points = points amount
$100,000 80/20 loan - lender charges two point
Loan around $80,000 times .2 = $1600 is the points amount that must be paid at closing.
What does a point equal?
1% of loan value
Bob and Mary are financing $160,000 for a new home. The lender will approve an interest rate of 6%, if Bob and Mary Kay to discount points at closing how much is this?
$3200
$160,000 x 0.02 equals $3200.
One point equals 1%
Two points is 2% = 0.02.
Remember to multiply and not divide
How many square feet are in 1 yard
Three
How do you calculate the area for a triangle?
Multiply half the base times height
Property is being sold for 15,000 an acre how much will 5 acres cost
$75,000
15,000×5
