Special Government Home Renovation Loan Program with FHA 203K Renovation Loans in Eagle Colorado.
This article will explain the little-known special government loan program that is part of FHA (Federal Housing Administration- a department within HUD). A home buyer or existing home owner can remodel or update their 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. Repaint, remodel cabinetry in kitchens and bathrooms, add wallpaper, replace appliances and flooring and even add a room to an existing structure (which will increase the value of the homes square footage).
There are many advantages with this government loan program but the biggest is the ability to have all of your acquisition or refinance loan costs together with your renovation loan in one low interest rate instead of two separate government loans that are always of higher interest rates. The name of this FHA loan program as defined by the Federal Housing Administration is a 203K loan.
