Use the Special Government Home Renovation Loan Program, the FHA 203K Renovation Loan available in Erie Colorado. There is a special government loan program that is part of the Federal Housing Administration (FHA)- 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. For more information, please visit the FHA website: http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/program_offices/housing/sfh/203k/203kabou
Lenders have to be approved by HUD in order to do this loan program. It is essential that you go with a lender that can offer in house underwriting and expertise instead of using a mortgage broker due to the intricacies of the loan program. Using a broker can cause unnecessary delays in the process.
There are two types of loan programs that are part of the 203K Renovation Loan program for Erie Colorado.
The first is what is called a streamline 203K loan. With a Streamline 203K loan, there can't be any structural improvements and the dollar amount is generally lower for a 203K streamline loan. Only basic cosmetic repairs are allowed with a Streamline 203K loan. Items such as painting, plumbing, electrical, and flooring can be financed with this type of 203K loan. A Full 203K loan is the second type of a 203K loan.
A full 203K loan offers structural improvements like adding another room or doing foundation work as well as the ability for the home owner to rehab or renovate their current property. It's now possible to envision new carpeting, paint, a remodeled kitchen or bathrooms and lighting when looking for your new home and have the home of your dreams, which will give you much more flexibility in your home purchase or to remodel your existing home.
