FHA 203K Limited Offers Home Fix

FHA 203K Limited, formally known as FHA 203K Streamline providing buyers with the needed fix in Runaway Bay, TX. After a long home search these newlyweds have found a home that was well maintained on the interior but the exterior was falling apart.  The FHA 203K Limited is the perfect partner for a home that is needing cosmetic repairs.

FHA 203K Limited is designed for only cosmetic repairs and repairs that are under $35,000 in total rehab. Cosmetic can have a wide range of meanings, if the repair isn't structural you are likely in the clear. If you are unsure, give us a call and we can talk it over.

If the repair is structural or over the dollar limit then you will need the FHA 203K Standard Rehab Loan that is void of the restrictions mentioned for the limited. This particular project was all cosmetic and fit just right, take a look at some of the details below.

Did you know this about the FHA 203K Loan?

HUD allows appliances to be included in the scope of work for all FHA 203K Loans. You are able to purchase a home and roll in the cost of anything from fridge to dishwasher. This can be part of a wider kitchen remodel or standing alone by itself as a simple appliance package upgrade. It can be as simple as going to Home Depot to pick out the right package and giving us a call. Find out what 2o3K Loans can do for you!
