The statute, as written — Loans and extensions of credit fully secured by real property

(a) For loans and extensions of credit fully secured by real property other than unimproved raw land, a depository financial services loan company may advance, directly or indirectly, up to and including ninety-five per cent of the appraised value or real property evaluation required under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the rules and regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of the real property securing the loan and extension of credit. The principal amount of the loan and extension of credit shall be added together with the outstanding balances of all prior liens on the real property to determine the ninety-five per cent loan-to-value ratio. (b) For loans and extensions of credit fully secured by mortgages on unimproved raw land, the maximum loan-to-value ratio shall not exceed seventy per cent of the appraised value or real property evaluation required under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the rules and regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of the unimproved raw land. Parcels of land with direct access by road and served by electric power shall not be deemed unimproved raw land. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (b), depository financial services loan companies, which make loans fully secured by real property in excess of twenty per cent of their capital and surplus, shall obtain appraisals of the real property securing those loans.
