If the purpose of loan is to borrow against equity of rental home to finish the construction of a customer's principal dwelling, is this HMDA reportable as a purchase?

Is it going to be paid off with permanent financing?

No, it's a 90 day note. He is planning on paying off completely at the end of the term.

I think it's a purchase. Secured by a lien to construct a dwelling, and nothing is temporary just short term.

Still awaiting answer from FRB HMDAHELP.

What property do you report on the second loan? The property being used for security or the property being purchased?
