Many may have heard about the 203k FHA Renovation Loan, but few have actually decided to dive in with both feet.  NOW is the time to start implementing the 203k into our properties... Here's a scenario:

Realtors: Here's the problem... Have a listing that needs improvements AND the Sellers can't afford to invest in making those improvements? This causes the listing to sit for possibly months & may even be the cause for the property not showing as well.  Most Buyers aren't willing (or are unable) to invest money from their savings to improve the property after closing.

BEFORE                                          AFTER

Solution: With a 203k loan, the Buyers can now roll the costs of those improvements into their offer & have them financed...requiring ONLY the 3% minimum FHA down-payment!! IT GETS BETTER! Have a Buyer who doesn't have the 3% down-payment? IT CAN BE GIFTED...essentially allowing the Buyer to enter & close without investment on their part!!  Now...here's an even better point...the loan closes (and you get PAID!) PRIOR to the improvements being complete!  Would you agree that this opens a world of possibilities for your Buyers & Listing now?

There's never been a better time to prove our value and market awareness to clients.  If you need help understanding the process, I will be posting a much lengthier explanation and "tutorial" soon or - feel free to email or call & I'll walk you through.

Don't let it be intimidating - spend a few hours in research & development & your clients will forever thank you!
