There is a Special Government Home Renovation Loan Program using Killeen Texas FHA 203K Home Loans.
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). This FHA loan program allows the buyer or existing owner of a home to do significant amounts of remodeling or updating to their home without a higher cost second lien.
"Luxury items" like a hot tub and a swimming pool are not allowed by this FHA loan program. Although, you can repaint, replace flooring and appliances, add a room to an existing structure (which can add to value tremendously as you increase the square feet of your home) as well as remodel cabinetry in kitchens and bathrooms.
This loan program has many advantages but one of the biggest is that you have all of your acquisition or refinance loan with your improvement loan in one low interest rate, which is a government guarantee loan instead of two separate loans (which are always higher interest rates).
The Federal Housing Administration callas this FHA Loan program a 203K loan. For more information, please visit the FHA website:
