This is very common. It’s called “buying on paper”. Obviously OP needs to make sure that the developers are legit and have a lawyer review the contract before she signs on.

Many many many people have lost their entire life savings and borrowed money from buying on paper. Buying on paper 2-3 years in advance is a real big risk. It's a gamble. Especially when the money you put down is borrowed money.

The problem I’m seeing is that you won’t have any reduction in overhead (rent) for atleast 2 years. And you’ll be owing ppl money.
How are you going to manage paying rent and payment plan of the loans? You need to find someone that can lend and only need the money back in a while, then it gets really hard to commit to that in advance.
I know you don’t have the option to save slowly because the market is rough but where is the money going to come from?

If the money is borrowed she has no risk, just the people who lent the money have risk.
OP what about a construction loan?

There aren't any secrets.
Speak to a mortgage broker, they will tell you your options. 3.5% is a minimum for PMI mortgage.
Then speak to anyone you know who may be willing to help, present them with a written agreement and payback plan and daven.

I recently spoke to a mortgage broker about BP and was told I would have to put down 20 percent as down payment which is a huge sum. Is this incorrect?

We recently bought a summer home on paper. At the time of signing contract we needed to put down a deposit. Only upon closing 2 years later can we get a mortgage. Until then it is not yours and you cannot mortgage it in any way. A construction loan would be for the builder to take.
Are you going into contract now or actual closing?

Is buying on paper not done so much in america? Here in Israel, everyone and their brother do this as it is cheaper.
We did this 7 years ago. We signed, with a lawyer, a mortgage broker helped us through everything, and we had to put certain amounts down during the building of the development and then at the end we were able to get a mortgage. And we moved in about 2 years after they started building.
Its not fishy and its not sneeky. Its a different way of buying property. Thats all.
