There is a special Government Home Renovation Loan Program that exists with FHA 203K Renovation Loan for Southlake Texas.

 

 Many people are not aware of a special government loan program that is part of the Federal Housing Administration or FHA(a department within HUD). A buyer or existing home owner can do meaningful amounts of remodeling or updates to their existing home without having a higher cost second lien thanks to this special FHA loan program. 

 

 

 

 "Luxury items" like a hot tub and a swimming pool are not allowed by this FHA loan program. But you can repaint, replace flooring, remodel cabinetry in kitchens and bathrooms, add wallpaper, replace appliances – even add a room to an existing structure (which can significantly add to value as you increase the square footage of your home). 

 

 

 

 One of the biggest advantages to this government loan program is you have all of your acquisition or refinance loan with your improvement loan in one low interest rate, government guaranteed loan instead of two loans-  including a first and a second lien loan (which is always at a higher interest rate). 

 

 

 

 A 203K Loan is the name of this FHA loan program as defined by the Federal Housing Administration. You can find information on the FHA website located here:

 In order to do this loan program, lenders must be approved by HUD. It is important that you go with a lender that offers in house underwriting and expertise instead of a mortgage broker due to the intricacies of the loan program and to avoid long delays that brokered loans in this niche create.
