Tricky Wording For Buying Land To Build A Yurt (In Washington State)

[bnsa]

Hi everyone, my fiancee and I are wanting to buy some land and eventually build a yurt on it (after we save some money) but almost everywhere we look here in Washington State, people are not willing to finance land only. Of course when mentioning we later want to build a Yurt, they aren't as warm to the idea. Living really close to Portland, Oregon (In Vancouver, WA) one would think the banks would embrace buying Yurts, etc. because supposedly this is a "green" minded state.

So my question is - Does anyone know of any Realtors or credit unions that are open minded about people like us who want to go the Yurt route in the Vancouver, WA (or Portland, OR)... We want land but aren't sure when we'll get a yurt on it, or even how we can word it so we can get the ball rolling. We're tired of paying skyrocketing rent and want to be independent. If you're living the dream in Washington or Oregon, please point us in the right direction. Thanks a million!

Please help! Thanks!
