This one story house in Dallas has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and was built on a pier and beam foundation. Similar to what you see on HGTV, the plan is to completely remodel the property inside and out. The FHA 203k Standard Loan allows walls to be moved; that was the case here when the buyer decided to expand the master bedroom and remove a partition wall to open up the kitchen area. With a house of this age, the contractor the borrowers chose also installed new electric, plumbing, and HVAC to bring the utilities into the modern age.
The best part of a remodel is always the kitchen isn't it? New cabinets, tile, sink and all new appliances are going to be the center piece of a newly spacious kitchen. Take a look at some of the before pictures below and remember that FHA 203K allows you to find a great deal or perfect location and make the home your own while adding value.
