Need a Mortgage Loan for Dallas Fixer-Upper: Consider FHA 203k Loans
What Are the Pros and Cons of FHA 203k Loans?
Renowned Renovations is a FHA 203k approved Remodeling Company, which is required for a FHA 203k loan.
The main benefit of FHA 203k loans is that they give you the ability to buy a home in need of repairs that you might not otherwise have been able to afford to buy. Plus, the down payment requirements are minimal, and often you get decent interest rates (note that the interest rates and discount points will vary by 203k lender, so it’s important to make sure that you’re getting a good deal on the loan).
The downsides are that not all properties qualify, there are limits on the funding you can get and applying for the loan isn’t easy. For example, to apply for the loan you may need to hire an independent consultant to prepare the exhibits required (to get the loan, you have to provide a detailed proposal of the work you want to do and cost estimates for each item).
