203B Mortgage Program - Buy a Fixer Upper & Roll in the Improvement Costs

Did you know that you can now buyer a fixer-upper and wrap the costs of updating/repairs into your loan? Lowe's is a partner to this program and you can use Lowe's as our remodeling partner. Here in the Texas Hill Country including the Marble Falls, Horseshoe Bay, Lake LBJ and great Austin/Lake Travis areas, we have many homes that will meet this criteria - it could be a great way to go and get instant equity in your new home plus get just the home you have been looking for....

FHA 203k Benefits

RE-buildUSA allows you to more easily enjoy the following FHA 203k benefits:

  • Only 31/2% down payment required, which can be gifted by family members
  • More flexible qualification requirements allow those with less than perfect credit to purchase a home at competitive rates
  • A single loan for both purchase and improvement of your home means you make only one loan application and pay one set of closing costs – saving you time and money
  • FHA loans are assumable and there are no prepayment penalties
  • An FHA Energy Efficient Mortgage (EEM) can allow you to qualify for a larger mortgage to add additional improvements that will lower your utility expenses.
  • By including cost of renovation in your home mortgage, you pay for these improvements over time at a much lower interest expense than conventional alternatives
  • Rather than paying a premium for a home in “perfect” condition, take advantage of the great prices available on foreclosures or other homes on the market that are in need of repair or remodeling
  • Instead of paying for a previous owners improvements you may not desire, invest instead in exactly the features, colors, styles, etc. that suit your tastes and needs
  • Enjoy the opportunity to live in an up-to-date home in a great location closer to work, shopping, cultural activities and more
