Before the loan is approved or first payment is disbursed, the lender would have reviewed the 'builder package' which includes plans, architecture drawings etc. They will turn it down if it is not traditional single family home.

The best way to apply for developer loan or construction loan on 'custom' build like this is to approach local banks. Citywide bank in Aurora, CO will do something like this.
