How Much Land Can You Afford? A Breakdown of Monthly Payments
Purchasing land is an exciting investment, but understanding the financial side of it can sometimes feel overwhelming. At Mountains West Ranches, we make land ownership simple and affordable with our in-house financing and no credit check process. If you’ve ever wondered how much land you can afford, this guide will help break down the monthly payments and what to expect.
Understanding the Costs of Buying Land
When buying land, there are a few key costs to consider:
Down Payment: We require a minimum down payment of $1,000. However, if the property is over $100,000 or includes a water well or any built structures, a 10% down payment is required.
Monthly Payments: Our owner-financed properties come with affordable monthly payment options that vary depending on the price of the land and the financing terms.
Interest Rates: Since we handle financing in-house, our rates are competitive and structured to make payments manageable.
Property Taxes: These vary by location and are typically a small annual expense.

What Affects Your Monthly Payment?
Several factors determine your exact monthly payment:
Length of Financing Term: A longer-term spreads out payments, making them lower per month.
Additional Down Payment: Paying more upfront reduces the amount financed, lowering your monthly cost.
Property Location & Features: Some parcels may have slightly higher prices due to accessibility, terrain, or location benefits.
