We offer a Special Government Home Renovation
Loan PROGRAM
with Abilene TX FHA 203k Renovation 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
. 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).
The FHA LOAN
program
is called a 203K LOAN
by the Federal Housing Administration. For more information, please visit the FHA website:

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.
There are two types of LOAN PROGRAMS
within the Abilene TX FHA 203k Renovation Loans
. 1. A streamline 203K loan
. The dollar amount of improvements is generally lower for a streamline 203K loan, and there can not be any structural improvements on a 203K Streamline loan. Other than basic cosmetics and various other items. are allowed on a streamline 203K REHAB
loan. The second type of 203K loan is called a Full 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.
When looking for your dream home you can envision a remodeled kitchen and bathrooms, new carpeting, lighting and paint with this Full 203K loan
which could allow you to remodel your existing home or give you more flexibility in your home purchase.
