construction loan in this market?

Has anyone tried to get a construction or major renovation loan since Sepetmber? It seems like a great time to get a deal on a tear-down or gut renovaiton property, and also a decent deal on construciton, and we've seem some interesting properties in South Slope and Ditmas areas. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

wells fargo is about the only one doing a purchase and renovate loan. Be prepared for sticker shock on the intereste rate. It's running about about a 1.5 - 2.00 points higher than a 30 year jumbo for a 30 yr fixed.

also, sunny from countrywide said they are still doing them.

I got one just before September from Mortgage Family through Merrill Lynch.
