Frequently Asked Questions

How does a 203K loan work?

Let’s imagine you wish to purchase a house that requires a completely new kitchen and bathroom. You would then receive money from an FHA 203K lender for both the purchase (or refinance) of the home and the necessary kitchen and bathroom upgrades.

The loan will frequently also include one or both of the following: 1) an up to 20% contingency reserve so that you will have the money to finish the remodel in the event that it ends up costing more than the estimates suggested; or 2) a provision that allows you to defer up to about six months of mortgage payments so you can live somewhere else while you’re remodeling but still make payments on the new home.

Is it possible use a 203K loan for all types of improvements?

No. Anything deemed costly is not allowed, including a tennis court, gazebo, or brand-new swimming pool. But the majority of improvements and repairs do count.
